(1) There are few suitable sites owned by the DC government.  Ellington, the old Western HS site, supposedly is planned for renovation.  Although logically a new Ellington should be located more centrally, closer to Metro and ideally adjacent to a major performing arts venue, many at Ellington apparently suspicious of any suggestion that the school no longer be in Georgetown.  Another possibility, the old Hardy school site on Resevoir Rd., is mostly controlled by DPR and is probably too small for a high school site.

The old Hardy site is over five acres, more than twice the size of the current Ellington site.  The rec center is no longer controlled by DPR, all DPR properties were transferred to DGS in October 2011 -- which shows that transferring property between agencies is no big deal.[/quote]

Provide evidence of the accuracy of these numbers. I've read (somewhere not quite reputable) different numbers showing Ellington slightly larger than Old Hardy (including, I believe, DPR land).

You mention the Rec CENTER. This is distinct from the grounds, no? If so, you are engaging in deliberate obfuscation. [/quote]
