Apparently I was lying when I claimed not to have any photos of the place. It's just that I can't ORGANIZE my photos. So, here is a old shot of the site (formerly Singletary Auto). 1358 Florida Ave. Here is more info on the gallery.
A look at what's going on in Trinidad, on H Street, and in the larger area north of Capitol Hill.

Major Gallery Moves to Florida Ave
The former home of Nifty Thrift, located immediately west of new gallery.
The news is finally out [Express] (with public confirmation) that Connor Contemporary is relocating from Dupont to the 1300 block of Florida Ave NE. They closed a couple of months back & are currently transforming the space to meet their needs. With a little luck we may see the gallery up and running sometime in spring. The numbers I've heard (I believe the article's numbers only cover indoor space) fall around 12,000 sqft. That includes an outdoor space slated for use as a sculpture gallery and possible staging ground for multimedia events. This is not only the largest visual arts development in the H Street NE area, but huge news in its own right. The 12,000sqft site will (as the Express points out) make this the largest commercial gallery in DC. Huge news. Enjoy!
