[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It doesn’t seem like the big Bloomingdales mall thing is doing well. The fancy retail strip was a flop. Maybe they should turn the Chevy Chase pavilion back into woods. [/quote]

They should turn every building there into high end condos and apartments with retail on the street level and include 3br units for families who want to get in the desirable school zones nearby.

[b]They should move Bloomingdale’s and Saks up to the White Flint site and turn it into a nicer town center than Pike and Rose.[/b] Think Tyson’s Galleria mixed with Bethesda Row. Rework the I-495 intersection nearby to allow eastbound traffic to go up Wisconsin / Rockville Pike without doing a U Turn while you’re at it.

Problem solved and everyone wins. No one wants to go to department stores and deal with that traffic near Friendship Heights, but high end condos and apartments would do great because of Metro proximity and great schools. White Flint needs to be redeveloped.[/quote]

That White Flint site has been completely abandoned for going on a decade now, which is absolutely astonishing because it is such a prime location.  Will anything ever get done, or is it completely hopeless?[/quote]

I mean, they do run a motorcycle school there now...

But they had been hoping Amazon would come, and then they didn't. There's no plan at this point. [/quote]

Actually there is a plan:

After the lerners wasted tons of money in a protracted, losing court fight against lord and Taylor, it seems that they were waiting for a government handout to develop the site. [/quote]
