[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Approval's not the biggest hurdle.  Once it's cleared, there's financing.  On the GDS front, no major donations have been announced.  Sidwell will clearly win the facilities race -- larger campus, quicker and much less expensive consolidation process.

Meanwhile, another couple hundred new apartments will come on line in Tenleytown -- closer to the Metro and presumably with lower rents -- before the project at the Volvo site even breaks ground.  Like Sidwell's lower school relocation, these commercial projects will also involve adaptive reuse of existing buildings (where WAMU and Krupin's/Murasaki used to be) and require minimal (if any) zoning relief.  Hard to believe that with these units, in addition to new apartments at Cathedral Commons, 5333 Connecticut, Tenley View, and Park Van Ness all within a mile or so of the GDS site, that there will be demand for another 250-300 units with a scenic view of a 1200 student PK-12 campus.[/quote]

I would love to live walking distance to my DC school.[/quote]
