[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]From the walk zone maps, it appears Barcroft ES will be losing some sfh’s from Alcova and gaining Caf’s From the new apt building. I’m skeptical changing the calendar one way or another will make a difference to the demographics.[/quote]

Alcova being re-districted elsewhere would be fewer SFHs to Barcroft; but what apartment building is adding CAF's in that attendance zone?  Food Star redevelopment is market rate - not affordable housing/CAFs.  There's a small condominium building under construction on Columbia Pike; but that's supposed to be ownership units, not affordable housing.  But I agree, the boundary changes in south Arlington are not going to help Carlin Springs, Randolph, or Barcroft.[/quote]

Gilliam place right on that pike. 
Commited affordable
Supposedly mostly seniors
Will actually produce at least 2 classrooms worth of kids.

I think you and the PP are talking about two different developments. The old church property near Glebe is slated for AH. But there is another, smaller new condo building going up further down the Pike near Four Mile Run. It's market rate condos, starting in the $200s

Those new condos at Four Mile Run may be geared towards singles & couples w/o kids. But I totally forgot about the Food Star development. Not sure if that's apartments or condos or a mix of both, but that is sure to add some new families to the mix.  [/quote]
