Cool. He still lives in a SFH blocks from a Metro station, which writers and commenters on the blog he founded say should be illegal. He also admits to owning a car despite painting all cat drivers as evil.

Maybe he's trying to overcompensate for his hypocrisy by supporting that condo project.[/quote]

If you're going to obsessively hate on GGW for some reason, please hate on GGW accurately.

"Multi-family buildings should be allowed by right near a Metro station" =/= "Immediately knock down all existing non-multi-family residential buildings!"

"Many drivers drive dangerously, and transportation policy should stop subsidizing/enabling driving to the detriment of all other modes" =/= "All car drivers are evil!"[/quote]

The comments section of that place -- I'm going to guess you're one of the 5 people who comment on every story in that echo chamber, considering your weird need to come here and slurp GGWash constantly -- say that it's an accurate description, and if the blog owners let those comments stand, it's tacit agreement. The fact is, there are many, many GGW writers (Alex Baca, a deeply unpleasant woman who never met a Black churchgoer she couldn't call names on her Twitter feed) and commenters who do want to "immediately knock down all existing non-multi-family residential buildings" near Metro stations and who want to ban cars. To deny that is to deny the truth.[/quote]
