[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I live in Glover Park, about 5 blocks from the proposed site. On our neighborhood listserv, there have been about a dozen posts supporting the shelter, and ZERO posts in opposition. I can't vouch for the opinions of people in the Observatory Circle neighborhood, but Glover Parkers generally seem accepting of this decision and ready to help. I'm sure there will be some concerns about effects on Stoddert, which is already overcrowded (despite the recent expansion), but overall I think our community can take this in stride.[/quote] I live on the Observatory Circle side (about three blocks from the proposed site) and our family is in favor of the plan (with some conditions) as our many of our neighbors. We actually already have a homeless shelter in our neigborhood (St. Lukes) where many neighbors volunteer or support in other ways.[/quote]
