I think the difficulty with the beautiful but dilapidated buildings there is that Florida Ave. has so much traffic. It makes these homes and buildings feel a lot less residential in nature. Similar issue on Rhode Island Ave. and N. Capitol in places.
that building has had so many starts and stops its crazy.
for some reason i always envision a gigantic lit up steel arch from that roof, across fourth, to the roof of the funeral home.
it'd be so rockin.
ha, at least to me anyway.. see "boxer girl" ; )
uh-huh. And I'm imagining that Frazier's would be transformed into the NW outpost of Rock'n'Roll Hotel.
