Downtown Condo Update

I was last in the triangle about a week or so ago and I took some pictures of what seems to be a fairly on schedule Dumont. I want to apologize for taking way too many pictures of the north side of the building but it also happens to be the side my unit is on ; )





I'm fairly happy with the exterior architecture to date. While still very conservative, Phil Esocoff has managed to update DC's stale architectural vocabulary into something a little more palatable. If only the triangle started to go in the direction of high end Manhattan developments like this...

One Jackson Square
50 Gramercy Park North
1 York Tribeca
40 bond

Maybe there's hope for the future?
