[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you are walking distance to Key, you will be walking distance to your middle and high schools. So if you have to take a bus to elementary school, so what? [/quote]

I live in Rosslyn. The only way we're walking to middle and high school is if we lottery into HB Woodlawn at the new building. We will be fine if we have to take a bus to Taylor, Long Branch, or ASFS, but it certainly complicates the aftercare situation. Most families in our neighborhood have 2 working parents. Remember, they are taking away the by-right admission to Key that we had before. [/quote]

Look, you bought in Key so you could go to ASFS anyway, and you would've been on a bus. You aren't fooling anyone. You bought into a neighborhood that didn't have walkable school. Deal with it. We don't have the resources to make life even easier for every white walker. Key is more accessible for families who need to use public transportation to even entertain the idea of immersion (remember, dual immersion doesn't work if you don't have enough native Spanish speakers, and there aren't enough native Spanish speakers living around Key any longer. They've been priced out.) [/quote]
Ok so walkability is a right for every part of Arlington except the Rosslyn ballston corridor which is supposed to be planned careless.  That makes sense.  Remember the asfs building is just as accessible to metro.  It's within half a mile of two metro stations.  [/quote]

Look, if you need a car to have kids, then the R-B corridor is NOT FOR YOU. Move already. [/quote]
