Update on Pop Up at 9th and I St, NE, Looks About Done

Prince Of Petworth — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 21:00:34 +0000

A lot of progress since we last checked in at 9th and I St, NE. While it’s not my favorite, it’s not the worst one I’ve ever seen. What are your final thoughts?

Another Pop Up Going Up on Ontario Rd, NW

Dear PoPville,

Saw this going up at 2317 Ontario Rd NW…I know they don’t have any restrictions in my section of Adams Morgan but it seems weird.

Ontario Road is becoming a popular pop up destination. We’ve previously looked at one at 2714 Ontario Rd, NW.

Judging Pop Ups – I Think I Found Another Good One

Prince Of Petworth — Thu, 12 Jan 2012 21:00:50 +0000

Most of the time I post pop ups the reactions are universally negative. And in many cases that is certainly understandable. So I’m always happy to share ones that I think do a good job. This one from Capitol Hill is still getting worked on but I think they did a great job. You like the way it’s turning out?

It’s been a while since we checked in on 2714 Ontario Road, NW. We’ve been following the progress of this construction here, here and here.

House of the Day (reader request)

A reader requested we take a look at the house being converted to condos at 13th and Euclid St, NW. What do you think of the mini pop up? You can see what it used to look like prior to the expansion here.

Thanks to a reader for spotting and sending photos of this one. They write:

“I thought it was one of the better pop tops I’d seen before.”

What do you guys think of this one?

Popping up at 13th and Otis St, NW

Prince Of Petworth — Mon, 28 Nov 2011 21:00:09 +0000

It’ll be interesting to see how the long vacant property at the corner of 13th and Otis St, NW in Columbia Heights turns out. Looks like the whole block is getting fixed up. Note the house next door is also getting popped up but instead of wood framing is using cinder blocks:

Lots of Progress at the 9th and I St, NE Pop-Up

Prince Of Petworth — Mon, 21 Nov 2011 21:00:02 +0000

Remember the Pop up at 9th and I St, NE that almost blew over back in Feb. ’11? How do you think it’s started to turn out at this point?

Update on 1636 North Capitol St. NW Pop Up

“Dear PoP,

You had a post about a horrific looking pop-up on north capitol (1636 North Capitol St. NW). I wanted to let you guys know that the developer has seemed to actually have done a decent job in matching the new & old facade. I’ve included a photo I took.”

Wow. That’s pretty impressive. What do you guys think?
