[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Until and unless population density increases, Tenleytown will continue to be a dreary strip surrounded by a startingly (for DC anyway) homogenous residential population. Of course the GDS development isn't going to solve problems caused by decades of chasing away any change, but it will be a step in the right direction of starting to create a more urban village within our great city.[/quote] For Pete's sake, Tenleytown already has a number of restaurants at lots of different price points, a variety of retail ranging from Best Buy to Whole Foods to hardware and shoe stores, with a regional destination retail and entertainment center within walking distance (or one Metro stop away) at Friendship Heights and other retail one mile to the south. It's hardly some dreary blighted area. No one wants to see vacant lots, but let's not look for the creeping generic Clarendonization of the community as some panacea either.[/quote]
