[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Same place. Only one Safeway (on Wisconsin in Burleith) within two miles. The WF at Tenleytown (2.9 miles), WF in Glover Park (2.2) and the WF at Friendship (4.2) are further.[/quote]

Whole Foods 2323 Wisconsin Ave 1.4 miles
Safeway 1855 Wisconsin Ave NW 1.5 miles
Giant 3115 Lee Hwy in Arlington 1.5 miles
Safeway 3713 Lee highway1.5 Miles
Safeway 1525 Wilson Blvd 1.9 Miles

If you need really Upscale the Dean and Deluca is 2.0 miles away.

I realize some of these involve crossing the river, but the point is almost everyone in that neighborhood has a car. The neighborhood is designed with cars in mind. To say it will become a food desert requiring government intervention infringing on property rights is ridiculous.

Your distances are off. According to Google Maps, this distance from the Palisades Safeway (4865 Macarthur Blvd) to 
Whole Foods 2323 Wisconsin Ave [b]2.2 miles[/b]
Safeway 1855 Wisconsin Ave NW [b]1.8 miles[/b]
Giant 3115 Lee Hwy in Arlington [b]3.9 miles[/b]
Safeway 3713 Lee highway [b]4.7 Miles[/b]
Safeway 1525 Wilson Blvd [b]3.2 Miles
[/b]
These are the correct distances, unless you expected the person to fly by helicopter across the river. Normal people are stuck taking bridges and roads.

This reply is petty and pedantic, but you cannot be loose with "facts" to make them falsely support your thesis. Hold yourself to a higher standard. Do it for yourself, if not others.
