Before the snow-that-never-was arrived yesterday, I took a quick spin to get some updated photos. There was still a smidgen of sun when I visited the
old Capper Seniors site, where only the southwest wing of the huge building remained standing when I was there (but even that could be gone by now). I also
wandered along Tingey Street behind the
DOT HQ for the first time in a long time to see what's going on with the work at The Yards--they're now preparing to build some temporary parking lots and are doing their infrastructure work before starting
the rehabs next year of three existing buildings into residential and retail offerings. I also took some shots along M Street and at
Onyx on First and
100 M to take advantage of the overcast skies in those spots, since the building shadows on winter days when the sun's out are almost impossible to work with. Finally, I got updated photos of
55 M Street, the northern portion of
Monument's Half Street project, where the section along M Street is now three stories high and a fourth story is underway on the southern edge of the building.
