Nice to have met you PoP, great blog, and thanks!! I lived in one or the other of these buildings from 1989 to 1993. Then moved out, couldn't get good tenants, got disconnected from them, tried to unsuccessfully sell them, and now have fallen in love with them all over again. And the area has become so positive and friendly. Lots of folk with Big Ideas and super attitudes. I'm having a blast. 1314 is fully rented now. The office tenant is an established architect/developer, and the retail storefront is a wonderful young photographer/bartender whose ideas are too hip for me to understand but whose enthusiasm and persistence won him a shot. In 1314 1/2 I'm hoping for a short order cheap restaurant. If curious about the b&w framed photo go to shorpy.com. For 1314 search Tom's Lunch. In response to the responses: tonysmallframe- Thanks! Yes tenants are very local. Douglas Dev.'s The Exchange 9th&N is the one getting a bank on the entire first floor street level. SG Thanks for the kudos!! The 'before' pics on renewshaw shamed me and inspired me to get going on this. Oh angry parakeet simmer down- Not bullet holes, places for the light bulbs. LoGirl Yup just a bit longer.

It's good to hear that she is holding out for a neighborhood based tenent - word on the street for a while was that a bank was moving in. The building is beautiful!
