Featured Property of the Week: 3639 New Hampshire Ave NW
“Prominently positioned on a corner lot in the heart of DC’s Petworth community, this vacant two-unit rowhome with Certificate of Occupancy offers over 3100+ square feet of flexible living for the investor, house hacker, and everyone in between. Light-filled with three exposures, the main residence features 4 bedroom, 3,5 baths, an open kitchen and dining area with a connected yet private living room, solid oak floors, fireplace, main-level laundry, and a spacious composite deck for outdoor living. Upstairs includes two primary suites with en-suite bathrooms, plus two additional bedrooms and a full hall bath. The lower level (approx. 1,100+ sq ft) is a fully separate 2BR/2.5BA unit with a complete kitchen, in-unit laundry, and an open, light-filled layout—well-positioned for strong rental income or a high-performing Airbnb just steps to Metro. Both units are separately metered and come with Certificates of Occupancy, offering true flexibility for investors or owner-occupants alike. Delivered vacant, the opportunity is immediate: live in one unit and rent the other, or maximize income from day one. Ideally located near Columbia Heights and Petworth Metro, with easy access to Giant, Target, Rock Creek Park trails, and neighborhood green spaces.” (more…)

At some point a lot of guys realize they don’t really have a friend group anymore.
Not in a dramatic way. Friends move away, people get busy, and actually seeing the same guys regularly almost never happens.

“Dear PoPville,
That stretch is so scary for pedestrians/cyclists (and even as a motorist when crossing Michigan). Cars come really flying down that hill. And the metro station and Turkey Thicket are right there, so lots of folks on foot. They need to do some real rethinking that road to make it safe.”
Update from MPD:
“Detectives with the Metropolitan Police Department’s Major Crash Investigations Unit are investigating a traffic fatality resulting from a traffic crash that occurred on Monday, March 1, 2021, at the intersection of 10th Street and Michigan Avenue, Northeast.
Preliminary investigation revealed that at approximately 11:07 am, a bicyclist was traveling southbound on 10th Street, Northeast, crossing from the north to south side of Michigan Avenue, Northeast, in a marked crosswalk. Concurrently, the operator of a 2017 Ford Bus made a left turn from 10th Street to Michigan Avenue, Northeast, and struck the bicyclist. (more…)

Thanks to Audrey for sending: “I got this little tree from Ace Hardware the week of Thanksgiving and kept it up until today because it wasn’t losing needles. I kinda felt bad taking it down when it was still going strong, but my husband (logically) reminded me that it’s March.” (more…)

“Dear PoPville,
I was walking my puppy with my friend at the Washington Monument Friday (2/26) around 4pm and a cute guy came up to us with his white terrier pup Benji. My dog was petrified but Benji was adorable and so sweet. If you’re the 6 foot-ish., blonde man that was wearing a blue jacket I’d love to meet up again w our pups!”
