441 4th Street, NW

“Dear PoPville,

I noticed that an old sign reemerged after Firehook vacated their Judiciary Square location a few years ago. I guess Barista was the coffee shop in that space before Firehook opened around 2004?”

If you have a photo of a neat find from your house, place of work or neighborhood please send an email to [email protected] thanks. Please let me know where/what neighborhood you found it in too. Thanks.

Thanks to T. for sending: “Saw workers peeling back white window coverings to reveal the sign on my morning commute. I’m almost thinking it’s a leftover from wawa days, but they didn’t have “coming soon” signs when they were open

Wawa closed here back in June 2022.

Think Wawa could really be coming back or just an old sign?

Update from another reader:

“I live in that building. I believe that sign is from before the walls went up behind that window and before the outside of the windows were covered up, so an old sign.”
