[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just read all of this quickly. Have a 9th grader starting at Walls in the fall who may play baseball, so it’s especially relevant. Re Jelleff, it’s Much more convenient than Banneker. Yes, it’s only a difference of 40 min v 50 min walking, but by bus it’s 20-25 min, v 45-50 min for Banneker. How the mayor and DPR aren’t shamed into addressing this I don’t understand. Washington Post should keep the store it’s coming and see if it leads to any pressure. [/quote] This disregards where the actual baseball players may prefer to practice. I know 1/2 the team either lives on Capitol Hill, relatively near Banneker/Petworth or otherwise East of the Park. While these kids may save 15-20 minutes off their commute to Jellef (although the team usually metros to Banneker, so not sure what the time is for Metro), they just added an hour+ to their commute home.
