[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s 2.6 miles. That seems pretty close to me.[/quote]

It's about 5 miles from Blair to the southernmost part of TP.[/quote]

From the Takoma Metro, it's about 3.9 miles to Blair. [b]The next closest HS is BCC, [/b]which is about 5 miles.[/quote]
No, the next closest HS is Northwood.[/quote]

That's [b]incorrect[/b]. According to Google Maps, [b]BCC is 5.3 miles from the Takoma Metro, whereas Northwood is 5.4[/b].[/quote]

DP. According to Google Maps:
4.6 miles walking route between Takoma Metro and Northwood
4.7 miles walking route between Takoma Metro and B-CC

Not sure why you post false information about something that is easily disprovable but according to the REAL Google Maps:

[b]4.9 miles from Takoma Metro to BCC[/b]

Why are you arguing about the distance from a metro station that’s not even in Maryland let alone Montgomery county? The distance from the Takoma metro in DC is oh absolutely zero relevance to any of this discussion about Takoma Park which is a city in Montgomery county Maryland not a neighborhood in DC.[/quote]

It's 50 ft from MD and central to the very heart of Takoma Park.[/quote]

It’s in the edge of Takoma park and certainly not “central to the heart of the city” given that it’s in a completely different city. Only someone who doesn’t live here would say something like that.[/quote]

It's adjacent to the city center which is why its central.[/quote]

Come on. Look at any map of the city of Takoma park and it is on the edge and not central. There is no “city center” in TKPK though you could argue that the community center is one and that’s not the same location as the metro. What you are referring to is downtown Takoma park which, again, is on the very southern edge of the city of Takoma park and therefore not central.[/quote]

You come on. It is the very heart of Takoma Park. It is where the downtown is located and central to the area.[/quote]
