[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Once Murch and Lafayette have renovated buildings I think some of the pressure on Janney / AU Park will be taken off. [/quote]how so? Janney is already overcrowded, and Murch will start off full. Lafayette too. This won't matter to Janney.[/quote] +1[/quote] It matters to the 31-yr-old couple with 2 preschoolers who are currently living in Trinidad/ petworth/ "hill east" / eckington and have to move because their IB school is a non-starter; they didn't get into MV; and their 2.5 bedroom rowhome with no backyard is too small. These people have a choice of where to move when they cash out of their generic rowhome. If the choice is ward3, it won't reflexively be a move to AU park once Murch and Lafayette look like sparkly Janney in 3 years. A lot of people equate shiny new with excellence (see eg Stoddert)[/quote]
