[quote=Anonymous]I’d also say on the st James concept — that would be a waste of the metro accessibility.  All those tourney people drive.  And I wouldn’t think it would generate a lot of county income as far as sales tax or anything.

It would be great if they could be a few larger employers — people could commute down from upper county on redline and/or young people up from DC and once purple line is in, can commute from Pg.  would really be perfect for someplace to work.  And then could probably put some retail in around it which workers would patronize for lunch or after.

Actually even moving all that medical stuff from Fernwood over there would make a ton of sense as then people could get to doctors appointments by metro whereas now they have to uber if they don’t drive.

I don’t think it makes sense to make this area all housing.  They’ve just built a ton of small houses in the area north of strathmore.  They would overbuild for the schools pretty quickly if they added a ton there, but an over 55 community would be perfect there with the metro access and close to shopping and relatively close to medical.  I would move to a nice over 55 community there!
