[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mt Pleasant has changed a lot over the last few years. There are lots of new restaurants, a coffee shop, and a lot of new families with young kids moving in. There is talk of zoning changes so the entire neighborhood will feed to Bancroft, deal, and Wilson. It remains one of the few places in the city that you can live in a reasonable 3 bedroom townhouse with little crime and also walk to work in 20 minutes. I expect prices will continue to rise, although perhaps more gradually. [/quote] Not really. There are a few new restaurants and most of them aren't good. Bancroft is just as bad as it's ever been. Obviously Mt. P. can get kicked out of Deal and Wilson and sent to Columbia Heights or Cardozo at some point. Very risky place to drop over $750K on a rowhouse, particularly if federal jobs dry up.[/quote] Here we are with the $&%% hip restaurants again. Both of you. Which neighborhood has the best proximity not to hot "mixologists" but to rec centers, spray parks, soccer fields, safe places for new little bike riders to ride without cars, after school piano lessons and a walkable swimming pool with an option for summer swim team? PP #1 Mt pleasant (not really) or eckington-truxton-shaw-NoMa-CH (26 year old childless poster #2)? Every parent likes dining out sometimes or all the time but no actual parent with kids out of the Moby wrap chooses a home because it is steps from a scene. Pps like #2 should stick with PoP comment section instead of parenting site. [/quote]
