no. to the west a little. i just google street viewed it. just do street view and count the buildings til you get to 1108.
What a week for retail on H St.
People got that hardware store they wanted. Not a mom and pop but it will do. Now the bike shop. What next?
Jan 9, 2012 11:00:00 AM
A store that sells housewares would be nice.
Jan 9, 2012 11:51:00 AM
Hill's kitchen on H!

This is the best news yet. Congrats to them both!!
A "Monkey's Uncle" on H st would be awesome.
Jan 9, 2012 12:54:00 PM
This will totally fail unless they get their liquor license?

Re: what a week..
How about this one?

Dave B: what next? In my dreams, the biggest loss H Street retail suffered after the riots is remedied when Chuck Levin's finally returns to H. Right now there's no comparable vendor anywhere in the District; and a store that was even a third as busy as the Wheaton store Chuck Levin's moved to would be a *lot* of people brought to H.

This is referenced in a post in another thread, but it appears Capitol Hill Towers @ 900 G Street just sold for $22 million. Very interesting.

in reference to kenny g's link - that area is the CVS. Is the developer going to replace the CVS?

Old news. EastBanc bought that site back in May.
Feed me future news.

OK, future news: two years after Harry Thomas Jr. gets out of prison, he'll be re-elected to the DC Council.
Jan 10, 2012 12:04:00 AM
H J Thomas jr will not get reelected, if the new Councilmember is good at constituent services. That was the Thomas strength. However if a placeholder is elected, then no doubt he will be back.
Jan 10, 2012 2:40:00 AM
Stealing money from constituents = "good constituent services". Only in DC.

so when is the next tweed ride?
Jan 10, 2012 10:05:00 AM
I just wonder about the man looking out of the window... how did he get there? what's he doing? who's he looking at? what's he saying?
Jan 10, 2012 3:28:00 PM
He seems to have an eye on those bicycles down below- maybe he's saying this would make a fine bike store.

Robin,
I shot this photo during the 2009 H Street Festival, so he's probably watching the crowd.
