[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is a neighborhood in Mclean - I don't know the technical name, but it is behind the library.  There are old homes that have really awkward add ons and there are also nice normal sized new homes.  Some of the add ons look like they skirted some parameters, for certain.  Most of the new homes are done well, all different and tasteful, decent sized lots, and not Mcmansions, though I would fully expect the original or less recent owners would have some (real or imagined) criticism.  There are a few originals (without additions), but not many.  The latter has deteriorating roofs and porches, so I would bet there are older owners who can not keep up with what a house requires.  I am surprised a builder has not bought them out.  When this neighborhood finally turns over with new homes, it will be nice.  The bigger garages keep random yard piles to a minimum, and the new houses seem to attract a different element, as with any neighborhood.  It makes a difference when people can actually afford their house, which seems more prevalent with the new houses than with those who can barely afford it.  Since you asked.  It is a different market nowadays.

There are a lot of tear downs in the Old Dominion Gardens/Hansborough neighborhood that is NW of the library near Churchill Road.   [/quote]
