[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I imagine those 2000 families will walk to certain nearby businesses.  But they are also going to be adding lots of cars to Rockville Pike.  [b]No one is biking from Twinbrook to Pike and Rose, Rockville Town Center,[/b] Montgomery Mall.  I live near Rockville Town Center.  If I want to go to Wegmans I will drive.  Will I walk and bus to Rockville Metro, metro 1 stop, shop and carry my items home on the metro/bus and then walk home.  No!  I wonder how many people take Metro to Rockville Town Center.  Not many I would guess.[/quote]

? Plenty of people are biking. And more people will do it once the city starts adding bike infrastructure.

I don't know why people so often say "Nobody will do this" when they mean "I don't do this."

(Montgomery Mall?!?!)[/quote]

It seems like her main disagreement is that people don't want to haul their groceries onto the Metro and I agree but she misses the point that the people living there will be able to walk to Metro and use it to get to work easily without filling Metro parking garages or driving all over the place as would happen if they all had to move to Clarksburg or Frederick.  They'll be close to a lot of shopping with the Wegmens, mixed use shopping, Congressional/Congressional North across the street, etc.[/quote]
