[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]YMMV but Rockville Town Center is depressing and that whole area is on the decline. If you don’t want to be in the hole once you purchase your home in this economy I’d look where new development is a little further south. Look around Twinbrook Metro where Wegman’s is being built and around White Flint Metro and Pike and Rose. These areas are going to have homes that will appreciate a lot in the next 5-10 years, especially homes that are walkable to Twinbrook Metro and Wegman’s development.[/quote]

I respectfully disagree. Sometimes, I wish Rockville town center had a bit more of the vibrancy of Pike and Rose. Still, the current incarnation of the town center has 2-4 places I’d happily go for date night without kids, 2-4 sit down restaurants I’m willing to eat in with kids that don’t overlap with my “date night” choices, 3 casual places I’d go to with kids + the Spot. There are also a handful of places I’d go to with friends or co-workers. I’m grateful to be walking distance to so many places and am looking forward to the ice skating rink in winter.[/quote]

I also prefer RTC to P&R.  It is much easier to navigate and park.  I do wish there were a few more productive?  stores that I could get errands done as oppose to browse for a gift.  I hope something useful replaces the CVS,  I enjoy the librbary and many of the restarants.  The picnic tables are great.[/quote]
+1  And homes around RTC are still very desirable.   They sell pretty quickly. Family friendly, close to Rockville Rec Center and Aquatic center, parks, schools, red line.

But ITA on the stores. They try too hard to cater to these small businesses, but those small businesses don't seem to cater to what people want. That's why they keep failing.[/quote]
