[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lots of undeveloped parcels along Rhode Island Avenue...There's plenty more density to be added without increasing the height limit.

One of the pressures to increase development in less developed areas of the city is the height limit.  There's lots more growth to be added without turning into Rockville or Arlington.

Now, that said, I'm not actually against raising the height limit.  But to say there's no more space left is to pretend that NW is the only sector of the city.[/quote]

This is idiocy. 
You’re claiming that parcels on Rhode Island Avenue are as valuable as parcels in DuPont circle??!!?

The whole point of building up is to increase density in DESIRABLE locations.[/quote]

Sure, like in downtown and Upper NW.  No thanks, Bowser.  You've done enough corrupt favors for your crony developer "friends."[/quote]

How do we say no thanks? Has the tide turned, or are she and the council still ramming through projects and variances?[/quote]
