[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Much of this overrun can be attributed to the Georgetown and Burleith neighbors, who bitched so much about parking that they ultimately created a requirement for the underground parking. NIMBYism is a big reasone why this project cost so much. [/quote] no - NIMBYism is a reason the school should have been relocated elsewhere, preferably in a central location accessible by public transit. There was no compelling reason whatsoever for DE to remain in Burleith given the scope of the renovation. Parking is the least of it, and it would have still been an outrageous expense even without that added requirement.[/quote]
