| Isn't it ridiculous? How can they even propose such a monstrosity?? |

| Awful and completely ruins the property. Hope the folks that opposed the Giant can turn their forces against this one. |

| Oh come on. That can't be the real proposal. Wtf is that photo; Rosedale property doesn't even look like that. This is some crusty, old money great granddaughter troll who thinks g-mum-mum's house value is about to be threatened. There won't be anything left for you to inherit anyway dearie; she's going to live for decades and then leave it all to the Cathedral! |

| It looks like Donald Trump wants a DC home that replicates his Palm Beach palazzo. |

| Oh, that is the real proposal. Trust me (I'm not the OP). I'm looking forward to the public meeting to hear all about it. |

| People in Cleveland Park won't abide a historical reproduction of Edith Wharton's/Henry James' victorian home version of Giant; what makes you think such a monstrosity will ever be built there? It won't. They'd have to crawl over the dead bodies of 3/4 of the most powerful Democrats in the country to do it. Never gonna happen. |

| The amazing part is that these people had the audacity to even propose it. |

If this is true  LESAE, PLEASE, I hope you have a smartphone. Set up a Ustream account for the meeting here http://www.ustream.tv/ you can use a dummy gmail account to do it. Then hold up your phone and with your Ustream app post a link here on DCUM. I know I and dozens if not hundreds of residents would LOVE to see a live stream of that meeting. Trust me. Do it. It will be a riot.

| I've been following this on the CP listserv, it's really awful that they're not planning to follow the standards set by the conservatory. |

| That is supremely ugly. |

They aren't "the buyers" yet. Closing on the property is conditioned on approval of these plans. |
