[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes. It’s not about building on Lee. It’s about building N of Lee, even if just on the N side. Anything below Lee won’t improve diversity in the least diverse schools. Jamestown, Discovery and friends won’t ever cross 29. [/quote]

There are big plans to build on Lee highway even north of it.  The Tuckahoe PTA knows about it, I guess you do not.  Friends cross Lee highway all the time so try again.[/quote]

Oh, come on. Even when a developer got the Sun Trust property, they decided to put townhouses on it rather than a high-rise apartment building.[/quote]

They won't cross 29 for schools.  Anything below 29 will go to Reed, Glebe or Taylor.  It keeps the J/D/N triad safe.[/quote]

You forgot Tuckahoe. Also, Nottingham already reaches across 29 (as does Tuckahoe), something that is likely to continue in order to fill the schools up there. Especially if they go ahead with the suggestion of stretching Ashlawn's boundary south of 50. [/quote]

So what’s the deal with ASF that keeps coming up?  When new boundaries come to that part of Arlington seems like there would be good diversity from the Ballston, VA Square, and Courthouse areas.  Heck, the one place there is affordable housing along Lee highway is between Kirkwood and N Scott st. [/quote]
