The real question is will there be a pool hall again?

Actually, I supported IBG's application for a PUD for that site. Then again, I'd have been happy with the pool hall (or the hardware store that wanted to move in). S doesn't know wtf s/he's talking about. The selling price and the level of interest in the site suggest that all these claims about how "NIMBYs" are scaring developers away from T'town are just BS.

It was a great auction today. There were some real heavy hitters at the auction. I just wrote a post as soon as I got back to my office on the event. If Doug's successful history proves correct - he may have just made himself another few million.

You gotta love Douglas Jemal. He may take his time and charge exorbitant rents, but the quality of his product is the best out there (Abdo being a close second).

Good recap! I especially loved this- "Then they lost interest, perhaps considering that this strip of Wisconsin Avenue has long been a boring and unhip place to do anything in the District of Columbia." HA! So true... Don't tell Sue Hemberger. She likes it juuust the way it is.
