[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Too many apartments in the area and the schools are already overcrowded![/quote] No, definitely too few apartments in-bounds for Janney. Time to diversify Janney![/quote] They're building lots of apartments at the Lady Bird where Super-Fresh used to be. And then there will be apartments at the Lord & Taylor and Mazza gallery sites, which are within the Janney zone. But they won't bring economic diversity. "Affordable housing" is just a GGW and DC Office of Planning talking point for lots of market-rate dense housing in Upper NW. And don't forget the 1500 new housing units at Upton and Wisconsin, just a stone's throw from Janney. They may not be in the Janney district now, but one never knows how re-zoning will turn out.[/quote] They could be more affordable than the minimum, if the adjacent residents demanded it rather than simply fighting every.single.development.proposal.
