It’s been a very long month. But with the recent news of Greek Deli and Great Wall (and Brookland’s Finest soon) reopening for take out and now this, well I’ll take it!! Thanks again to Judi for passing on the good word from Calvert Woodley:

CALVERT WOODLEY IS REOPENING MONDAY, MAY 4th!

We hope you are safe and healthy and doing well. We have missed you!

As a thank you for your support we are having a 20% OFF SALE ON ALL WINE through May 9th. Online ordering is available now.

To keep our employees, customers, and community safer, here are the adjustments we’ve made, or are continuing to make, to our normal business operations:

• CW will be open Monday through Saturday, noon to 5:00 pm.

• No customers inside Calvert Woodley, just employees. To ensure physical distancing, we will have less than half the staff we normally have at any given time. (more…)


Also awesome – from All Souls:

“Dear PoPville,

As most of us are these days, I am 100% home and teleworking. I have it pretty good–still have a salary and with ample of indoor and outdoor space to move around in.

However the amount of noise in DC is really incredible! I know I had crappy windows–installed by a third party after a construction job at my place. I can hear everything and I’d rather not.

Can you ask the community if anyone has replaced their windows and what the brand/style was and who installed them? I’m especially interested in hearing from people who live close to busy streets (I live off of North Capitol near three traffic lights–sooo much honking and loud music) and who are satisfied with their windows/noise reduction. Also interested in bad experiences/places and products to avoid. I know there are quality windows out there but it is expensive when you have 17 of various sizes to replace (not including the basement ones).”
