[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't get the appeal of McLean other than proximity to DC.  Ugly sprawling town, the worst of 70s and 80s architecture.  The most beautiful homes can't be seen from the road.[/quote]

Agree that the town is ugly. Older resident wants to keep it that way, they don’t want Mclean to become destination and create the traffic issue. Make sense to me. If you drive deep down.. it is alot of beautiful houses, and is quiet… I think the more you have money the more you want to live secluded.[/quote]

McLean Properties owns the Giant shopping center. They are planning to redevelop it - and also the increasingly vacant older strip along Old Dominion which is adjacent. [/quote]

Any idea what they're planning? That Giant is not my favorite.[/quote]

I’m curious, too. I actually like the Giant, but I’ve noticed so many tenants leaving. A barber who used to work in the shopping center (they didn’t renew his lease) mentioned that they’re only offering short-term leases now. It seems like something is happening, but there’s nothing in the news about it.

Also, it's true that the older folks want to keep McLean as is to prevent too much traffic...[/quote]
