[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]the town area is money, so Money Magazine is right on.  The area just south of Maple is being torn down left and right, with very nice new houses in their place.  Now they just need to tear down and redevelop some of the shopping centers with mixed use.  A bit more density, with residential and retail and underground parking.  That would be nice.[/quote]

The town is the least expensive part of Vienna.  The money part of Vienna is the 22182 area in the county north of the town.  [/quote]

that is where I live.  But the future is the area south of Maple with the tear-downs.  Closer to the town, schools and amenities.  Nobody is going to buy a $800K house off Lawyers or Hunter Mill to tear it down - at least not in the next 15 years.  But they will buy a $550K (just guessing, no idea what they cost) house and build a $1.2MM house in its place.  Lots of nice but dumpy neighborhoods heading out on Lawyers or up Hunter Mill (looking at you, Tamarack) that are too expensive to tear down.  Wendover is awesome, agreed.[/quote]

tear down is a great concept, just 5 years too late. The houses for $550 (if you can find one) are being bought as fast as they come on the market.[/quote]
