Day: October 11, 2004

229 R Street is the house of the 1/2 month, for the first part of October. I just like this building. It’s got a turret, and a little courtyard.

Walk by it and notice how it looks like it may have been a store when you see te corner has been bricked up. Just notice the house. There is a lot one could do to gussy it up, make it look 10,000 times better. But then, it looks fine now unadorned.

According to the little yellow flyer on my fence:
