[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, the "we don't want any nice things for our neighborhood" and "we don't want 'other' parking on our streets or using our parks" is Trumpian.

And the hydrology thing is totally bogus. If it were an issue, neither the Hearst school nor the Sidwell gym would have been feasible. And, if the issue is the field, then put the pool where the tennis courts are located, as proposed. See, no hyrdology [sic] issue there.

But keep hanging your chad on that issue, it is a nice deflection from the core 'stay our of our neighborhood" that is really the message.

Let's leave the hydrology to the experts .... and hope that the DC government engages some!   However, both Sidwell Friends School and Hearst School are situated at a higher elevation than most of Hearst Park.  It might be one thing if DC were proposing to build the pool at the Hearst playground location, up the slope.  (Even Cheh clearly knows that taking the part of the playground area for a pool would  be too heavy a political lift.)  But all of the DPR 'options' locate the pool downhill in the bowl, at the levels where the field and the tennis courts are located.[/quote]
