[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Love to see it. “Missing middle” serves to enrich developers and nothing more. Hopefully people have begun to recognize that. [/quote] Agree. I'm over developers ruining neighborhoods.[/quote] Ah yes, your home was built by...whom?[/quote] The original owner in 1892.[/quote] That’s great but like 95% of the homes built in the late 19th century at least in DC were built by developers. Literally they did it to restrict any undesirables buying land and building something themselves.[/quote] From Arlington Wikipedia entry: "In 1900, Blacks were more than a third of Arlington County's population. Over the course of the century, the Black population dwindled. Neighborhoods in Arlington set up racial covenants and forbade Blacks from owning or domiciling property.[21][22] In 1938, Arlington banned row houses, a type of housing that was heavily used by Black residents. By October 1942, not a single rental unit was available in the county.[23] In the 1940s, the federal government evicted black neighborhoods to build the Pentagon and make room for highway construction.[21]"[/quote] The great liberal Franklin Roosevelt took the land from the blacks in Queen City to create the road system for the Pentagon and put them in squalid trailers with no sanitation. His wife, the great liberal Eleanor Roosevelt, supported the FHA program which restricted the program to white home buyers. Madame Roosevelt even came to Arlington to congratulate the first white homeowners who purchased their home in Arlington with an FHA insured loan. Now Arlington is clearing Green Valley, Halls Hill, Highview Park and Johnson Hill for developers. The great white liberals, especially the YIMBYs, are all about making affordable housing. [/quote]
