[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't see how they are going to make it all fit there. It's going to be really cramped. [/quote] Agreed. Although the school has tossed out hints about doing commercial development on the Volvo parcel, it's hard to see how everything fits without using the Wisconsin Ave. frontage for academic building needs. [/quote] In speaking to the parents earlier this summer, Shaw was pretty explicit that the Wisconsin Avenue parcel was envisioned as a revenue source. Obviously, things could change, but the economics don't look good. Selling the L/MS campus might pay for the HS land acquisition but then GDS still has to build the facilities for the L/MS. Then again, I doubt that the revenue stream is likely to be as large as he anticipates (the comparison was to the Gonzaga deal, which involves a larger parcel that was developed as a Walmart plus 300 apartments.
