If Bloomingdale were to become a Historic District, then the topic below would be of greater interest to Bloomingdale property owners.
To repoint, or not to repoint: that is the
question! Mortar may be the most over-looked
and under-appreciated aspect of your row house. Architectural
conservator Justine Posluszny Bello will discuss mortar and repointing
fundamentals for the Capitol Hill homeowner at the next Preservation Café,
sponsored by the Capitol Hill Restoration Society, Thursday, April
21. This
will include a discussion of mortar terminology and tips, signs of trouble, and
things to be aware of when you’re considering embarking on a repointing
project.
Bring your questions! The presentation will
begin at 6:30 pm at Ebenezers Coffeehouse, 2nd and F Streets, NE,
basement. The event is free and handicapped accessible and
the public is encouraged to attend. No reservations required.
