Better living through Real Estate

Y'all west of NJ Ave won't be interested in this, but my TC brethren, particularly those of you who showed up at the last BACA meeting ( the notes are up at the super secret site user-thismeeting/ psw- neverhappened).

I remember the houses or vacant apartment building on the unit block of Q St mentioned during the public safety section of the BACA meeting. It seems that there have been some squatters who invaded the buildings and caused concern for some of the neighborhing residents. There were some fire marshall signs up but someone mentioned that those signs went missing. Anyway, it appears that those problem houses are up for sale. So if you have a couple of mil laying about the house you could buy 1/2 a block.
The phrase 'better living through real estate' came up in a conversation with a Realtor and TC resident, who believes purposeful RE transactions can aid in the betterment of the neighborhood. Well a row of tall townhouses with 2,000 sq ft per lot, are 30, 32, and 34 Q St (MLS DC6490583, DC6490599 & DC6490587) offered at $440K each. According to the listing you can try for a whole package deal. I wonder if you get a discount?

off topic, but thought you might want to proquest an article in the post entitled "Capitol Silhouettes Being Some Sketches in Outline of the Present With a Glance or two at the Past" Oct. 18, 1923

halfway through, toward the bottom, it mentions your neighborhood as being the WORST part of dc at one point in it's early history.

just thought it was cool.
