Today in what in the hell is that stink noise:

“Dear PoPville,

For the past two weeks or so, there’s been a very loud noise, something akin to an animal’s call, every 10 minutes or so, in/ about Kalorama Triangle/Adams Morgan. It sounds like the Dragon’s Screech on Game of Thrones, or a least a very large bird squawk, but is probably more likely a malfunctioning machine somewhere in the area – does anyone know what it is? It doesn’t stop in the evening, so it’s not construction, and I’ve heard it all over the ‘hood, so it has to be quite loud – has even woken me up from time to time – help!!!???”


Thanks to Nicole for sending word about Grass & Co last week: “next to Metro Wine on Columbia Rd!” sorry I blanked on posting but better late than never!

“The Adams Morgan community has shown us a lot of love and we’re hoping to extend that love to the rest of DC. Stop by and say hello!”

So I guess it’s time we started talking grass for those who like grass. What’s your favorite kind? (kind, get it? God I’m gonna embarrass my daughters when they’re older.) But seriously, what’s the good stuff these days? My college self remembers Northern Lights but not much else. Hey wait a minute…

For those who like lists, this is my NUMBER ONE most anticipated opening for 2017. Thanks to an eagle eyed reader for spotting this photo from *Wallpaper magazine of one of the bars coming inside the Line Hotel. It looks great.

Check out more interior photos here.

The Line’s website says opening this Fall:

“In Adams Morgan cultures intersect to create one of Washington, DC’s most diverse non-stop neighborhoods. With live music seven nights a week, ethnic cuisine from five continents and local shopping boutiques, Adams Morgan has something for everyone and delivers a uniquely rich way to experience the nation’s capital.”

STAY TUNED.
