[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is DC's overreach? That it wants to add affordable housing to its own property? And how exactly would a historic district prevent that from happening?[/quote] Increasing the height of a largely 2 story, pedestrian scale commercial area to 8 stories (80’) is a pretty significant change that is out of character with the immediate area.[/quote] A historic district definitely would offer more protections.[/quote] As the HDCC folks rightly say, there are lots of large buildings in historic districts. Look at DuPont, Woodley, etc. The large developers have no real issue with the districts as they have the process down to a science. It’s the very day homeowner that has to deal with the nonsense.[/quote]
