That said, who would want to live in a mega skyrise in Bethesda of all places. [/quote]

Sad to think it will look more like Rosslyn in the future.[/quote]

[b]Except there are no businesses to support the buildings. [/b]Montgomery County has done a terrible job of attracting businesses to the county

Also, what about DTSS? Why no effort to revitalize that business community?![/quote]

You can keep repeating this lie about Bethesda and SS on this board but it doesn't make it true. The office vacancy rate is about 20% in Bethesda and Silver Spring. Besides, the developers know best if the demand is there. The simple fact is that Bethesda and Silver Spring are doing well right now, as the endless construction indicates, despite all the Nova folks trying to convince people otherwise.

For context, the office vacancy rate in Arlington is an astounding 27%. Sorry that Nova is doing so terribly right now.
