[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So who is spearheading the effort to "Save the Uptown" and the character of the block? I feel the same way about Tenleytown. No need for any more building up. Our low, commercial hubs have their own charm.[/quote]

They may have charm, but they are not economically viable, and certainly not on top of metro stations. Where else does it make sense to focus density, if not on top of metro station and bus corridors?[/quote]

You know DC is a tiny nutshell of a city with excellent interconnected bus and metro transit? We are not talking LA here. The only two areas that seem remote/underserved by public transit would be Spring Valley and Anacostia.  The rest of the city is accessible WHEREVEER you are.  Why density? Why not livable, walkable neighborhoods with the greenery and charm and low height that people love about DC? Spread your little money-making building projects around more evenly and leave the historic aspects of our city--that make our city our city and not generic anytown USA--alone.[/quote]

Anacostia has metro and buses. Please don't comment on communities you have never visited.[/quote]
