[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is sad. And the NIMBYs in Palisades are getting exactly what they deserve.[/quote] Why do you say that when Safeway has been acquired and its new strategy seems to be to close and consolidate smaller stores into large box stroes designed to serve a wider geographical area?[/quote] Safeway has a lot of valuable real estate in DC and Italy's sense to max it out. Petworth shifty Safeway was rebuilt with 250 units on top. Giant at O st is part of a 500 unit redevelopment and hotel. new giant on H and also Wisconsin are part of residential develpent. They needs more multi family housing. In all wards. It does not diminish property values. And I can assure you that trader joes will never locate in palisades. I have worked with them And they are have very specific needs and demographic targets and density. And palisades ain't it. I remember when these same Nuts fought the medical office at Sibley. Concerned the traffic would destroy palisades. Good grief. People get the neighborhood they want. Just ask the tenley folks how that's working out for them in their vibrant neighborhood![/quote]
