New Columbia Heights: Too bad: 3 Salsas taqueria out of business
http://newcolumbiaheights.blogspot.com/2015/08/too-bad-3-salsas-taqueria-out-of.html
Monday, August 10, 2015. Too bad: 3 Salsas taqueria out of business. Some sad news for taco fans: Three Salsas, the takeout Mexican taqueria at 3439 14th Street NW, is now closed. A reader sent in a photo of the storefront, which is covered in plywood and has a for rent sign on it. I was a fan of the spot, they had tasty tacos and were nice folks. Then again, there are multiple spots nearby, like Taqueria Distrito Federal and the new (and fantastic) Taqueria Habanero just blocks away. Posted by Andrew W.

New Columbia Heights: Crazy staircase
http://newcolumbiaheights.blogspot.com/2009/01/crazy-staircase.html
Monday, January 5, 2009. I saw this at about 13th and Otis, pretty crazy. I guess there's a unit on the top floor, and the stairs are how they get there? Posted by Andrew W. That's nuts. they could have easily build a bit more elegant one by having more of a spiral structure rather than those huge long sections. January 5, 2009 at 4:33 PM. That's a fire escape. The property is housing for special needs individuals, and the city required that fire escape. I don't think a spiral would have complied. New cu...

New Columbia Heights: Pretty funny: Transformers Ford Bronco on 13th Street
http://newcolumbiaheights.blogspot.com/2015/07/pretty-funny-transformers-ford-bronco.html
Monday, July 27, 2015. Pretty funny: Transformers Ford Bronco on 13th Street. The other day I was walking to Wonderland and spotted this: it's a black Ford Bronco with "AUTOBOT" license plates and the Ford emblems replaced with the Autobots logo, from the Transformers. Good thing it's an Autobot and not a Decepticon. It's nice to know that if the bad guys attack, 13th Street will have some giant transforming robot protection. Posted by Andrew W.

New Columbia Heights: A reminder: don't park facing the wrong way on a one way street
http://newcolumbiaheights.blogspot.com/2015/07/a-reminder-dont-park-facing-wrong-way.html
Wednesday, July 29, 2015. A reminder: don't park facing the wrong way on a one way street. You don't see this every day. A reader alerted me to this amusing situation yesterday: somebody parked facing the wrong way on Park Road. They're still there this morning, plus a few parking tickets. Pretty weird: maybe they drove down, realized they were going the wrong way and parked? Maybe they were drunk? Let's hope not.) Reader Yasha Moz. Who sent it in, theorized that it's a Decepticon. Trying to blend in.

What You Can Do. About nightclub noise in DC. Call ABRA (202) 442-4423 or e-complain. On ABRA webpage http:/ dcforms.dc.gov/webform/abra-e-complaint-form. Every time you hear club noise. Even if you do not want them to come into your home in the middle of the night (which is an enforcement protocol we are trying to change), you can urge them to go to the offending club and order them to turn down the sound or shut the doors. If you don't know the offending club (as in Dupont Club Central), say so. Ward 5...

New Columbia Heights: Target selling Chewbacca, Darth Vader adult onesies
http://newcolumbiaheights.blogspot.com/2015/08/target-selling-chewbacca-darth-vader.html
Thursday, August 6, 2015. Target selling Chewbacca, Darth Vader adult onesies. If you were looking for something funny to buy yourself or a friend, get to Target: they have a selection of Star Wars onesies for adults: Chewbacca, Darth Vader and a Stormtrooper. They seem to be various sizes, and amusingly the tags say "union suit," I guess another word for onesie. They have hoods too, and the Vader one has a cape. Pretty awesome. Posted by Andrew W.
