Looking from the southwest at the 1st and M intersection, in August 2006. (08/06)
|
The same location, under construction. 100 M is the building in the forefront; Onyx on First is at rear. (12/29/08)

Square 743N, seen from overhead, in March 2006; St. Matthew's Baptist Church is at bottom, the parking lot is the 1111 New Jersey site, and the Onyx lot is at the right rear of the block. (03/06)
|
The same location, two years later, with 100 M (left) and Onyx (right) a few months from completion; 1111 New Jersey could start construction at lower left in 2008. At the very top left of the photo you can see the stadium. (11/17/08)

A one-block-away view of the 100 M site, this time standing at Cushing and M and looking to the northeast. (02/06)
|
The same location (backed up a bit), almost complete. (12/07/08)

Looking west along M Street from between New Jersey Avenue and First Street, in February 2006. The low-rise white building at center is the On Luck Cafeteria, marking the corner of the 100 M site. (05/06)
|
The same location, almost complete. (Note also 20 M now completed down the street.) (5/26/08)

100 M is quite easily seen as one looks up First Street from the Frederick Douglass Bridge. (6/5/08)
The construction of Onyx and 100 M is visible from inside the Nationals ballpark, although the parking garages and other nearby construction have obscured the view. (8/3/08)

The On Luck Cafeteria held out at 1st and M for a long time.... (05/04)
|
But the owner accepted a purchase offer of $4.5 million in February 2006, and in September of that year On Luck (and the Zohery Bus Tours garage beside it) was demolished. Now 100 M has taken over the landscape. (8/24/08)

A cropped photo from Sept. 2000 showing the corner of 1st and M; note that past On Luck and the "Auto Wholesale" sign is a rowhome, standing alone. This is on that triangle of property next to the alley that Opus East was unable to buy; the structure was demolished sometime before 2003. (09/00)

Townhouses along 1st Street, in August 2004. (08/04)
