“Any way you like.

AVA is a living space where people who crave the energy of a neighborhood, social engagement and self expression can be at home in their lives. We’re driven with the sights, sounds, smells and feel of the neighborhood – turned on by the city, alive by the people.

There’s no shortage of vibrant energy and action on H Street, a DC neighborhood and community unique unto itself. But city living at its best is about to get even better. AVA H Street will soon harness that unrivaled energy… in the form of some pretty sick apartments.

Dear PoPville – Mugging on H St, NE Sun. night at 10:15 PM

“Dear PoPville,

I wanted to report a mugging/assault on H St. NE Sunday night. I was assaulted by a group of teenagers at approximately 10:15 p.m. Sunday night across the street from Rock ‘n Roll Hotel and near the new Pho place that opened up. I was walking home from dinner (at Sticky Rice) and as I was passing a group of about 5-6 teenagers, one of them sucker punched me in the face and as I stumbled and turned around to face them another of them punched me in the face.

I realized there were about six of them so I ran across the street and sought refuge at the Rock ‘n Roll Hotel. I told the bouncers what happened and they were extremely helpful and nice- gave me a bottle of water, ice, and let me stay there until the police came to take down my statement (it took the police 40 minutes to show up after I had called 911). I suffered a bruised nose and chipped my tooth in the altercation.

I don’t have dental insurance and have spent the better part of the day researching dental options. It’d be great if some of your readers could offer up suggestions or if a dentist would like to help me repair my chipped tooth by letting me pay on a 3 month payment plan or something”

I’m so sorry to hear this. We have spoke about some general dentist recommendations here and yesterday we spoke of some options for finding a doctor without insurance. Does anyone know a dentist that would accept a payment plan?
