The renovation of Marina View Towers in Southwest DC is well underway.Originally designed by IM Pei, the apartment building has been undergoing a major renovation.

Now calling itself The View, the apartment building is now leasing again.

The website www.myviewoverdc.com has information about the apartments and their amenities.

The View is conveniently located near the Waterfront Metro and in the midst of Southwest DC's revitalization. It is across the street from Arena Stage and next to the currently-under-construction Waterfront Mall.

Southwest Washington DC - Images of America (book)

I recently discovered and purchased a fascinating book on the history of Southwest DC. "Southwest Washington DC" by Paul K. Williams is loaded with old photographs of Southwest DC. It was great to see the historic buildings in SW... some of which are still standing even if they don't look as they originally did.

It's available on Amazon.com. See the link below:

National Stadium Opens - Sunday, March 30, 2008

03-23-08
Steve Dean

The new Nationals Stadium will open on Sunday, March 30th. While the game begins at 8pm, events celebrating the opening will begin at 3pm.

Residents in the area began receiving Visitor Parking Permits in the mail as the parking restrictions in Capitol Riverfront and Southwest DC has changed. Many streets are resident parking only now. Many other streets are two-hour limited parking even on the weekends.

The President will be throwing out the first ball, so Secret Service will be handling security.

The first game will be the first chance for local residents to see how visitors find the stadium and park.
