[quote=Anonymous]This isn't about building all new 100% affordable housing developments. As a PP indicated, concentrating working poor into areas isn't a recipe for success. So, what will happen, as proposed, is that areas are being designated with more opportunity via underlying zoning. Tenleytown, Friendship Heights, Cleveland Park, Woodley Park (all on the red line) and Chevy Chase, DC are all being proposed to be upzoned. With that upzoning will come new housing and follow on new affordable housing units. Yes, the city will need to figure out infrastructure questions including available seats in schools. It will also need to figure out transportation in Chevy Chase, DC (since there is no metro there and bus services is very limited) but overall, these are incremental changes.[/quote]
