[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The economics of this is that building more housing in Arlington is going to reduce prices in Montgomery County and DC. The notion that all of the supply effects in one close in DC suburb will be captured by that suburb is laughable [/quote]

No.  Moco Bethesda and FX will go up if North ARL gets 3-6 units auto available with NO review for all lots now zoned SFH.  ARL has just done sloppy work.  SFH removed at 8th and veitch was replaced by 7 huge townhouses. MM sticks it at 6.  That lot could have been 12 smaller units with greenspace.  By the book MM ignores the actual potential etc for any given lot. [/quote]
MoCo is stupid, so I suspect they will be the next to follow suit. But Fairfax doesn’t do this nonsense. They don’t give their roads over to bike lanes. They don’t close roads for “streeteries”. They don’t do “missing middle”. They are not about these fads. They are also the most affluent county in the area with the highest growth of high wage private sector jobs.[/quote]
