Two things were done

Replacement in kind of interior wall coverings. Replacement in kind, when applied to architectural features, means replacement with a feature of like material that replicates the existing feature in proportion, appearance, texture, design, detail and dimensions Replacement in kind of up to 5 fire windows.

Did he hide something in the walls? Soundproof the windows?

Stranger yet, he does not own the property https://www.taxpayerservicecenter.com/RP_Detail.jsp?ssl=2833%20%20%20%200099

The owner is Boris Tochilin, who ever that is.

Some of the records that a company called CASTELLUM ACHILLES asked for permits. http://otr.cfo.dc.gov/sites/default/files/dc/sites/dcra/publication/attachments/201501Building_Permit_Issued_Jan_2015.pdf

When you look for this company you find information about a company called Castellum Achilles LLC https://opencorporates.com/companies/us_dc/EXTUID_4142206 Owned by JAMES ALEFANTIS, ! His lawyer, ROBERT A. HARRIS IV has opened many LLC with Alefantis.

The house don't look like a place a rich, well connected person like James Alefantis would live: http://www.zillow.com/homedetails/3518-11th-St-NW-Washington-DC-20010/472684_zpid/

Why would James Alefantis (a chef and restaurateur) use an LLC to do home renovations on a house he doesn't even own?

Look who left a review for the house next door!

This blue and white house are important. And probably the building behind both of them.

I'm over my initial jump scare. Now we need to figure out what this is all about:

PEGASUS REAR D.C., 3516 11th St NW, Washington, DC, USA

PEGASUS is a brand of towable horse trailers! http://newsite.pegasusvans.com/ They could have been parking a small trailer in the back lane?
