[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well as a resident of [b]West Alexandria, I can rest assured that neither gives a single polished turd about my neighborhood [/b]so none of it matters. They’ll just stay focused on Old Town and Del Ray. [/quote]

+1  And even then it is just one little central area.[/quote]

Absolutely right.  Both Silberberg and Wilson view everything west of Quaker as some sort of abandoned warehouse.  They put the homeless shelter in Landmark.  They bought an abandoned and badly suited office building for the new West End elementary school.  They are going to throw the West End out of TC and build a new, even worse high school.  Neither of them is good for much.

The homeless shelter is north of Old Town and will return there when the development is complete, meanwhile there is an empty mall that can easily be utilized.

The new school looks fine, and I am sure will work out well.  It was not abandoned, but was vacant.  A great opportunity.

There is NO plan at this point for whether to keep one city wide school or to have two zoned schools.   And no, the specs do not establish that one way or the other, no matter how many times you claim they do.

DP who supports "Absolutely right".  As much as you say it ain't so, it is.  I think you and your cronies are in for a big surprise.[/quote]

I am no one's crony, just a citizen, like you. I just disagree with you.[/quote]
