[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The problem with this entire debate in DC and MD is that everyone focuses on building more housing in what apparently are considered desirable areas. Maybe, the best approach is to create more desirable areas, rather that squeezing more folks in limited space. Wards 7 and 8 residents regularly (and rightfully) complain about lack of development there. So, lets do more development there, improving their quality of life and making their neighborhoods more desirable. [/quote] Have you been to Anacostia, Congress Heights, Deanwood or Hillcrest recently? Because your suggestion demonstrates a lack of knowledge of what is going on on the ground in those Ward 7 and Wad 8 neighborhoods.[/quote] I mean, their post is literally just "why can't we shunt all the poors to the other side of the city so I don't have to look at them or even acknowledge they exist." Of course they have no idea what's going on over here.[/quote]
