[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lyon Village is the worst.  It was built as a "village" of modest homes and dense streets.  The McMansions have completely destroyed the scale there.         [/quote]

I agree.  I bought a house in LV in 2008 and I am so pissed at what is being done to our neighborhood and how the h*ll the homeowner's association isn't doing something!

Lyon Village doesn't have a homeowner's association. There's a civic association, but that has no regulatory authority. If you had put your outrage on the back burner and taken a moment to see what could be done rather than indulge in self-righteous tantrums, you'd know that Arlington County establishes the rules for what can be built. A lot of what goes up is built by right. People seeking exceptions need to go through a process that, at its most visible, results in those yellow signs going up on telephone poles and lampposts.

FTR, I hate Mickey Simpson and his misproportioned, boilerplate houses, but it's not the LCVA's fault. [/quote]
