[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hope they never close the Chevy Chase safeway.  It may not be hip, but it's the right size.  I can find what I need there and the parking is adequate.[/quote]

Isn't this one they called the Soviet Safeway?  Long lines and little choice.[/quote]

No.  You're thirty years behind the times or more.  The Soviet Safeway originally was the Georgetown Safety until it new store was built in 1980 or so.  (The current big box replaced the 1980 store). Then the honorific passed to a small Safeway east of Dupont Circle.

[b]The Chevy Chase Safetway is perfectly adequate[/b].  I'm sure the last thing neighbors want to see is for it to be torn down and rebuilt into some generic copy of Clarandon or Cathedral Commons.[/quote]

Yeah, no. Now, I have my fingers crossed that this will go too. There has been plenty of chatter on the listserv about how terrible and how wonderful it is. The last time I went a few years ago an octogenarian warned me about buying bread there as hers had been infested.

Why do you, and the NIMBYs, think the only two choices are letting things fall to ruin and chain stores?[/quote]
