[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lol people literally refuse to send their kids to schools like Justice, fight against rezoning & busing, fight against multifamily housing in their own neighborhoods…and then wonder why the areas near Lake Barcroft have such concentrated poverty & associated problems. You all caused that.[/quote] Barcroft didn’t cause the poverty around Bailey’s Crossroads and Culmore. [b]The Metro did.[/b] Early plans had the Yellow Line terminating around Bailey’s Crossroads by following 395. Huge apartment buildings and other multi family housing was built in anticipation of a train that never came. As a result these developments found themselves in a car-dominated “middle of nowhere suburbia.” It didn’t take long for their desirability to fall and began capturing low-income and immigrant populations.[/quote] Or lack thereof.
