[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All this talk about grocery stores is so funny. The Harris teeter looks exactly the same in North Bethesda, as in Park Potomac, as in Bethesda, as in N Arlington.

The only difference is Maryland doesn’t have a Ballston-Rosslyn corridor of urbanization. You step outside Ballston and N Arlington is exactly the same as North Bethesda or Silver Spring in terms of endless suburban sprawl, strip malls, and highways. Fairfax arguably has more highways than MoCo[/quote]

That’s because of the proximity to the DC line. Wisconsin Ave and CT Ave from Bethesda/CC into DC is that. Tenley, friendship, Bethesda is essentially that corridor. We just don’t have a river blocking the access to dc [/quote]

That’s part of the problem. Places like Cleveland Park and Tenleytown were nicer 10-20 years ago. Cleveland Park peaked when Dino and the Uptown Theater were still around. [/quote]

Yeah, I lived in Cleveland park in the 90s and early 2000s and it was great. Now it just bums me out.[/quote]
