RSS FeedNewseum Twofer: Residences And The Source
WaPo recently reviewed two of the three components of the Newseum that are up and running, the residences (apartments) and Wolfgang Puck’s restaurant, The Source. We are eagerly awaiting the opening of the third component, the museum itself! (We’re also throwing in a The Source review from The Hill, a Capitol Hill rag.)

Thanks to an anonymous PQ Living reader who pointed us to the Residences article.
Happy New Year!
Like the sun rising in the east bringing a new day, January 1 brings us a new year called 2008. Happy New Year to all of PQ Living’s readers!
PQ Living will return to its normal publishing schedule tomorrow.

Street Elevator Action
You don’t see too many of these street elevators (sidewalk vaults?) in DC, at least not in the kind of numbers that you see them in NY & Chicago. We’ve caught this one outside of Ollie’s Trolley in use a few times for garbage pickups. Presumably most downtown DC buildings have loading docks so these street elevators are not needed for deliveries as they might be in other cities?
