[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This lot is just crying out for a 6-plex.  Totally fits the lot and neighborhood and is soooo convenient to transit.  What a great choice Arlington County Board!!!  Thanks so much for making it possible!!

It's 2 blocks from the ART bus, which can then take someone 1 mile to Ballston metro.  There are other bus lines on Glebe, but I think ART to Metro is the most likely scenario. [/quote]And a grocery store?  Coffee shop?  You can pretend to justify it however you'd like, but every adult living in that building is going to have a car and drive.  [/quote]

Your initial comment was that this lot isn't convenient to transit.  It's actually very convenient for someone commuting to the Ballston Metro.  I was replying to what you wrote, not the secret gripes you had in your head.[/quote]
Yeah, that secret need for food.  I totally made up that people who live in apartments need to eat, as well as commute to work.

It's a stupid location for a 6 unit building.  Density should be near transit hubs and amenities not in the middle of neighborhoods.[/quote]

Well if nobody wants to live in these locations because  they are "stupid," then you don't have to worry.  Sounds like you have it all figured out![/quote]

It’s tragedy of the commons, where self interested parties overrun shared resources. The govts is to safeguard and be a caretaker of the commons for the benefit of the community, but now all the benefit is being seized by developers. When those renters move in and realize the bucolic Arlington they thought they were moving in is gone (willfully ignorant of their own part in it), they very well may feel stupid. [/quote]
