[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP is obviously one of the oldsters who bought his/her tiny Bethesda house 20 years ago for next to nothing and, despite benefiting greatly from appreciation over the years due to all of the nice new houses in the neighborhood, cannot afford one himself/herself, and is now bitching that the nice, big Craftsman-style house next door is creating shade on his/her shitty little tomato garden. [/quote] They’re not nice, they are hideously cheaply made ugly boxes with weird triable and box things sticking out all over haphazardly. They are not often nice craftsman houses at all, they are awful things to look at. There is a builder named ‘Mimar’ who is building awful , ugly large homes in our neighborhood. They are just awful to look at. Not all new homes are awful looking - there was a builder known as ‘Welty’ , for instance, who built attractive well made homes. Most of the ones going up now are real stinkers. And the neighborhood is just flat out dumb to not be negotiating some kind of benefit for the community for having to deal with the nonstop construction vehicles and noise of construction and to have these builders and realtors share a tiny bit of the immense profits for the good of the neighborhood. [/quote] Are all old houses nice and full of character? Also, stop saying "neighborhood" or "blending in." There is nothing to blend in with. New houses ARE the neighborhood, they ARE the community.
