House of the Day
I dig how the blue accent looks on this house (on Westminster in Shaw). It’s also got some pretty neat window art:

I think PoP should consider not putting up posts like that. I would like him to explain...

True, but renters don't get a deduction. The tax break isn't meant to make home prices...
PoP! Really!? That is the most hideous shade of “f@ck-my-neighbors-blue”!
I was kind of shocked at first, but I like it. If its in Columbia Heights (particularly off 14th) then it fits. The window art goes a long way in diffusing the contrast between the blue and the brick.
I would do something to the stair pillars and the door pillars.. find some white or yellow objects, cloth..
Westminster Circle is definitely one of the cooler neighborhoods in Shaw these days. Lots of brightly-colored accents on the homes there!
KA-POW!!!
i dig the catwalk on the house next door.
It looks like they put up the blue masking tape that’s used before you paint. Weird.
i do murals and such in peoples houses and use the blue painters tape a lot. you’d be surprised how many people think its a part of the finished paintjob.. and they love it.
AWFUL! and I think that everytime i have to walk my dog by this house, because i live right around the corner. agree with poster who said this is a “f@ck-my-neighbors-blue”! TERRIBLE! and PoP – you could have picked the recently BEAUTIFULLY and historically correct renovated corner unit, just a few doors down!
