[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m in DC and I love it way more than Arlington. There are neighborhoods with houses and yards, the nicest being Cleveland Park, if you can afford it. Brookland, Capitol Hill, Brightwood if you can’t. DC has so much more character than Arlington and way fewer strip malls and concrete. Plus a reverse commute from DC into Virginia is far easier than driving within Virginia. [/quote]

Homes in Cleveland Park are lovely but the commercial strip there is just a strip mall - no better than any suburban strip mall, and worse than many of them. I don't think that stretch of CT Ave really has more character than Clarendon. 14th Street and the Hill have more character than Clarendon for sure, but not the Cleveland Park retail strip.[/quote]

Disagree.  It feels more organic and it’s also part of a far more attractive residential area. [/quote]

At least Clarendon still has independent coffee shops and bakeries. Firehook closing was a big loss for Cleveland Park. [/quote]
