Exactly. The incredibly acrid debate over putting a new school there wasn't that long ago and no one wanted their kids to go to that land because it's more urban and because it's such a small plot that there will be no fields and hardly any outdoor space. If they had proposed building a new high school there parents would have been up in arms because the kids zoned for that school wouldn't have and sports fields and would be in a high rise. HB can be bigger-- fine, but let's not pretend that building a new comprehensive high school would have ever happened on that site.

But there is. You are correct that it's not considered to be in a "good location" however. [/quote]

Where? (And by good location I only meant a place where people aren't already complaining about the traffic patterns.)[/quote]

It'd take some work, but you could likely build out the Hoffman-Boston Elementary campus, or the Gunston Middle School property. But yeah - that means some N Arlington kids would have to go to school in S Arlington. A lot of the people with those "4th Comprehensive HS Now" signs on their lawn only want that if it's in a certain neighborhood, with a certain group of kids. [/quote]
