[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pretty damning quote in the article from a lady who moved to Frederick.

[quote]“The exodus calculation, for me, included the social unrest in D.C., the cost of living, becoming a mom,” said Ms. Zachariah. “But we could never make a move like this without flexibility at work.”[/quote][/quote]

Meh. Anyone quoting social unrest was going to the suburbs (probably Silver Spring or Wheaton) 100%. Nothing to see there.

We were at the wharf this weekend it was packed.

Turn some empty offices into rock climbing gyms (already happening), ninja courses, art studios, you’ll see the DINK millenials and gen a line up.

Most jobs will still require some presence in office, so you can’t go full Fargo. [/quote]

DINK millennials are attracted by rock climbing gyms and ninja courses? I don't think so.[/quote]
I agree. When was Ninja Warrior popular? 5-10 years ago? These are not current fads.[/quote]
Just did a quick Google search and these places exist, but they are all out in the exurbs. Ashburn, Sterling, Frederick, Columbia and their target audience seems to be kids birthday parties, like the old bounce houses. The idea that they would convert a $500 million dollar K Street office building into an exurban ninja birthday gym doesn't seem credible.[/quote]
