A few weeks ago we judged the Dupont Market located at 1807 18th St NW. A reader writes:
“Looks like Dupont Market was broken into last night. The window on their door was smashed (it now is covered with a board with a sign that says something like, yes, we’re open) and a laptop and some cash was stolen.”
I never really appreciated this sign on the boarded up building next to Velvet Lounge on U Street. An awesome name for sure. Any long time residents who had the opportunity to check this spot out when it was open?
Not only is this a great spot but they also had a great sign out front:
This building is located on Wisconsin Ave between Macomb and Newark. I’ve always liked the painting on the old C.C. Murphy Building. Many have heard that a new Giant will be anchoring this spot. Here’s a rendering of what it could look like in the future:
There’s lots of info at the Wisconsin Avenue Giant Web site.
Apparently McDonald’s treats their chickens poorly. Besides free range aren’t all chickens treated poorly?
But hey, how could I not take a photo of a chicken costume. It’s impossible not to…
I found this on 18th Street in Adams Morgan. Fantastic sign!
This sign was so awesome, I made my attorney stop the car a block away so I could run back and snap a photo of it.
I know it’s not “traditional” sweet but I really liked the composition of this shot from mediaslave.
And HeatherMG snapped a shot of something I’ve been meaning to post for a while from the corner of Kenyon and Sherman Streets, NW. Waffles? So bizarre.
Hahaha, this is awesome. Thanks a million to a reader for sending this in:
“Check out this photo of a restaurant getting ready to open up on the corner of 17th and R. I’m not sure what focus group told them the name “The Sacrificial Lamb” was a good idea…but I think we can all be excited about the impending deliciousness of kebabs and naan.”
