Free: Assorted foam tiles (Dupont Circle) We have a lot of interlocking foam tiles that used to be the floor of a kids play area. There are 8-10 2’x2’ tiles with animals (elephant, monkey, giraffe, lion) in white and purple and a couple blue; about 52 1’x1’ squares in white, purple, green, blue, and orange; and maybe 36 ramp borders (some corner and some edge) which you can attach to the edges of the mat to give it a straight and beveled edge. Some of them, especially the white ones, have gotten a little discolored over time from dirt (and they’re not so easy to clean). Others were never used and are new. I’d prefer to give away all of them together. (The tiles on the floor of the room where I took the picture, those are staying btw) These were made by a company called SoftTiles that seems to have gone out of business, which is sad because their tiles were quite high quality and had great animal shape options.

Free: Antique Kitchen Glass Door Cabinet (Brookland, DC) An original glass door upper wall cabinet with original glass and hardware. I’m assuming from the 1930s or a few years later. When I purchased my home, I pulled it down, cleaned it up and added a plywood back which was lacking and added matching open shelves to complete the look. Wood has some markings which I was ok with. But they can be filled and sanded. Either way, I’m renovating my kitchen and the cabinet will not work with the new layout. Cabinet measures 5’ L x 12” D x 42” Outside H (37” Inside H).

Free: Storm door closer (w/o hardware) (Crestwood, NW DC) This screen door closer works but lacks the (presumably procurable) pins and brackets to attach it to a door and door frame. Piston has been bent once and straightened, pulls out and retracts fine with the pneumatic function working well. Third photo shows it extended (and held by the vice grips just so I could take the photo before it retracted).

Free: Eve Room temp/air monitor (Crestwood, NW DC) This HomeKit-compatible device is 8-10 years old, and we just don’t need it anymore, but it still works fine as far as I can tell. It measures temperature, humidity, and volatile organic compound (VOC) level. The company is still around and you can still download the app for it (though it probably works with any smart home app). The app will let you download measurements for the three things it measures. Can’t speak to how accurate the humidity and VOC measurements are. But I can tell you that when our old housemate would sit about 10 feet away and sip his evening bourbon, the Eve would send a poor air quality alarm.😊 VOCs from the booze.
