[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is a reason those cute houses are affordable. It is next to a depressing clusterF of a commercial corridor on Georgia between 16th St and the Beltway that has been going downhill for a while with no redevelopment prospects in sight, which peaked when Armand’s and Woodside Diner were open. Now you can leave your charming pre-WW2 colonial to a check cashing store and an Aldi where you’ll rush back to your car to avoid homeless people trailing you for the quarter in your shopping cart under the shadows of a charming water tower lined with cellphone towers.

Is this like traveling down Langston Blvd in North Arlington with the endless gas stations, the multiple vape stores, the multiple 7-11s (with homeless people outside each and every one), the shuttered Walgreens and Giant, and yes, even a checking cashing and pawn shop?

BTW, in the same shopping center where Armands used to be there, there's now a highly acclaimed restaurant: https://www.washingtonpost.com/food/2024/09/19/lime-cilantro-restaurant-review-silver-spring/[/quote]

Those Woodside homes would sell for 30-50% more in that area though, so I don’t see your point. You can’t fool the market. If you’re trying to compare the Yorktown school district and North Arlington in general to Woodside you’re going to be fighting a losing battle. How’s that pedestrian tunnel under Georgia Ave at Forest Glen going?[/quote]

OK, if you're point is that people can spend 30-50% more to live in the hellscape that is Nova, or they can choose a lovely place like woodside and save hundreds of thousands of dollars, then we're in agreement.[/quote]

That hellscape is Lyon village if you venture just south of Langston and the houses are more like 100-300% more. I doubt there are any “rich” people in silver spring. [/quote]
