[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] [b]MoCo doesn’t even keep up with the parks and community centers for older established neighborhoods, never mind for the new builds. Bethesda is just a paved over high rise mess with more high rises being built every day with features like ‘parking lots’ and ‘still more shopping’. [/b] :roll: Virginia gets amazon and job growth, educational growth , and good public transportation. MoCo gets more housing and shopping, no tech jobs or tech community but lots of new laborers, high taxes, traffic and special interest groups all with their hands out - but no economy except higher and higher taxes. [/quote] It's so crowded, nobody goes there anymore.[/quote] Bethesda is BORING. The parking is terrible and you’re likely to get a ticket and it’s modtly about [b]high end shopping and restaurants that turn over every few months because they can’t afford to stay. MoCo keeps putting in more and more high rises because they think that that’s their meal ticket but there is no infrastructure - no place to walk the dog, where are the ball fields for social kickball or a soccer game for the young adults?, [/b]the ice rink is gone. They’ve pretty well Crystal City-ized it you might as well put a Costco and a Wal Mart in now.[/quote] Agree completely. It's depressing. And, it's what they are trying to do/doing to Rockville Town Center. And, at Pike and Rose (blech!) and at Twinbrook. Like it or not, people move to the suburbs so they can have some SPACE and green areas. The urbanization of Montgomery County is going to make it a much less appealing place for families. [/quote]
