RSS FeedWhat’s A Dog To Do?
Tony writes to us to ask about getting Fido or Fifi out of the apartment in the Penn Quarter. As a former dog owner, this author knows how important it is for a dog to get out of the house for exercise and “other” reasons. Some buildings have courtyards but pets are usually verboten from those areas. We thought we’d ask readers to chime in and describe their experiences. What is your routine? Where do you take your dog to ensure that the day’s activities get done?

More Insight Into 10th and G Church/Condo Project
WaPo ran a balanced piece today on PN Hoffman’s plan to use the air rights over the First Congregational United Church of Christ at 10th and G Streets to build a 140 unit building while rebuilding the church for the congregation in the process. The lower floor(s) will house the church and the upper floors the condos. First United currently runs a kitchen to feed the homeless who can be seen congregating in the area at different times. Another PN Hoffman project, Mather Studios, is on G Street but its social component is housing artists and it is closer to 9th Street. The church gets a great deal out of this and we cannot argue with the social merits of providing for those most in need but how will prospective buyers view a potential purchase? The market will have to decide.
