Near Southeast DC Redevelopment 'Out With the Old & In With the New' Architectual & Industrial Photography Exhibit by Elvert Barnes 16 - 31 October 2006 Sizzling Express 4th and M Streets, SE, Washington DC http://elvertbarnes-freedom.blogspot.com/2006/10/near-southeast-dc-redevelopment-old-new.html Photo Details: Dan McGeorge's son, a Marine, purchased this house a little less than two months ago. Located in the 1000 block of 3rd Street between K and L Streets, in SE, it is amongst one of two sections of old rowhouses in the Capper Carrollsburg Community that will not be demolished. An alley seperates this section of old row houses from the section of Capper Carrollsburg that recently was demolished for construction of new 3 and 4 story row houses. The new section of row houses, yet to be constructed, known as Capitol Quarter at www.eyacapitolquarter.com/ will run parallel with the rear of the old row houses whose front faces 3rd Street and will include the land between L Street and Virginia Avenue and 5th and 3rd Streets. See www.jdland.com/dc/capper.cfm . The second section of old row houses that will remain and that will not be demolished is located on 5th Street between K and I Streets, directly across the street from the new Capper Carrollsburg Senior #1. When I inquired if he new the circumstances why these two particular sections of old row houses were not being demolished he said, according to rumor, the land is the property of a private owner who refuses to sell. Whereas, the lots that were demolished known as The Projects were owned by the city. Dan McGeorge, a fine art photography www.DanMcGeorge.com , who lives in California recently traveledl to Washington DC to assist his son in renovating his newly purchased old row house . SE WDC .
