[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We're new to 22101 and are enjoying trying the different restaurant/grocery options. We have two young children. There are some "charming-like" qualities to downtown McLean, but mostly its a bit of an unorganized mess (with lots of parking issues - like Joe's burger). We lived in Clarendon and Falls Church City previously, which have their own issues, but overall the efforts made by developers there to build more thoughtfully deigned and often walk'able areas there are making an improvement IMO. Unfortunately it seems to take an enormous amount of effort and time to rally the community, government officials etc around these efforts so I'm not holding my breath for much change in McLean in the next 10 years. In the meantime we will keep checking out all the little alleys and nooks for what downtown McLean has to offer.[/quote] The only people who have time to attend any hearings/meetings are the old people, who resist change - but we can't talk about that (in 3,2,1.....) It is fairly obvious that any walkability and usefulness "downtown" are long overdue. [/quote]
