[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So strange that many homeowners living near Columbia Pike were against the street car and gentrification in general. Renters I can understand, but homeowners? It's like they really don't want their property to appreciate. 
The east end of the Pike will continue to get nicer. Lots of potential for development and plenty of upper middle class people to support businesses. Smart place to buy for sure. 
The west Pike... sadly no. [/quote]

I think most homeowners appreciate the gentrification, streetcar was something that had no utility other than real estate speculators. I have friend in the north and south, some in the Clarendon area, their taxes on their homes have gone up dramatically with the value of their home. I think longtime residents remember when Clarendon had a bunch of dive bars now they have a Cheesecake Factory. I predict the eastern end in 3 years will really start to pick up and more developers will be going there. On Wilson blvd, a lot of the area is current in development have been developed from the 90s to now. They will eventually venture to the east end to build their apartment buildings that charge 2000.00 for a one bedroom and a community area with a waffle iron :)
