[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]No insults to the association, but why shouldn't they be leading up a committee to address this? We've been approached by neighbors seeking permits, but they are for the minor additions out the back, etc. They are not for the houses being completely mowed down and replaced by something 4 times the original size---with mixed media--siding, brick and faux stone. Arlington County should not be advocating/allowing the complete demolition of historic properties or the scale of homes they are allowing on these teeny, tiny lots. It looks ridiculous and it will be destroying everyone's property values in the future.[/quote]

I know.  I need to! I have been swamped and haven't had time, but apparently I need to step it up before it looks like I am living in a circa 2000 suburban neighborhood instead of the historic 1920-30s tree-lined one I signed up for.

It's been a snowball effect over the last 6 months that caught me off guard.  Every block I jog by something I find another empty lot with the framework of another huge mcmansion.[/quote]
