[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I live in 22207, and the benefit of putting affordable housing along Lee Highway would be that it would diversity pretty much every school boundary around it, since Lee Highway runs through areas feeding into Taylor, Glebe, McKinley, Discovery, Nottingham and probably Jamestown.  The other schools located in North Arlington (Longbranch, Barrett, Ashlawn, ATS) are already reasonably diverse.  Plus Lee Highway is served by a few buslines, which means that families with one car or no cars can get around almost as easily as if they were near Metrorail.[/quote]

They are starting the process for redeveloping around lee highway. Please get involved. They need to hear this from those neighborhoods.[/quote]

I agree with PP--it has never made sense to me that there isn't more AH placed along Lee Highway. There is plenty of land that is zoned for apartments, there are groceries within walking distance for much of the stretch of the highway, and the bus service is excellent. And parts of Lee Highway are walkable to metro as well. [/quote]
