Very uncomfortable trying to go to the bathroom. I visited some family friends in G-town who have a house with no doors on their bathrooms. Very uncomfortable trying to go to the bathroom.

However, the Grill looks like crap. So together one bldg. looks like crap and the other looks uber cool. No change. I love the building, and most of Division 1′s stuff.

NO doors, not even on the bathrooms) and the series of 5 danish-style-looking units one block over on 10th Street. The group also has plans form The Drost on 10th Street (opposite the Visio and the burnt out church), but I think they are waiting to see if they can get a bit more land. The Drost plans were showcased in some architectural digest a few years ago, but nothing has been started over there. (So I doubt hte Summer 2008 arrival date on the web is accurate, eh?) Anyhow, that one architect has really put his stamp on those two blocks.

I agree with GforGood and DG-Rad that once Fl. Ave. Grill is cleaned up, it will be more of a comparison of equals. I love the interesting, different architecture between U St. and Florida Ave. on 11th and 12th Sts. It’s wonderful to see bold architectural initiatives in what was once nothing but blight.
