Today's batch of approved building permits includes a raze permit for St. Matthew's Church at 1105 New Jersey Ave.
It closed a few months ago, and was bought earlier this year by Donohoe, and will be torn down so that its footprint can be part of the new 1111 New Jersey Avenue residential building expected to get underway soon. (It's this project that is the reason for the scaffolding around the east entrance to the Navy Yard-Ballpark Metro station.)
The project's shoring/sheeting/excavation permit was also issued last week, so the bureaucratic wheels are definitely turning.
(I will eventually start calling it the Gallery at Capitol Riverfront, but give me a little while on that.)
LATE-DAY UPDATE: Look for the razing of the church to begin in the next couple of weeks.
Also, after getting enough questions about it, I'll post confirmation that Ann's Beauty and Wigs is not part of the 1111 footprint, and so will continue to provide for the neighborhood's cosmetic needs.
 

From the Washington Post's piece on the extension of the comment period on the Virginia Avenue Tunnel Final EIS, a video provided by DDOT and FHWA showing the expected progression for the tunnel's construction.
I am miffed, however, that the animation doesn't include a red-headed photographer sticking a camera over the fences.
