[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]  How does Pike and Rose, which is across from a metro and on a number of bus lines, have poor public transportation?  [/quote]

The explicitly stated point was 'access' not public transportation per se but maybe you didn't read that.   And it's a  point well understood by anyone who's ever watched a nervous pedestrian try to dodge turning traffic at the busy Rockville Pike/Old Georgetown intersection, or seen pedestrians try to walk around each other on the narrow sidewalks of Rockville Pike without falling into the directly adjacent lanes of speeding traffic.

If you shoehorn nearly 1000 residences into a Pike and Rose space that previously had none but do nothing to improve pedestrian access to the nearby metro stop, it doesn't matter what the developers say on the brochure, it's still not tranport oriented development.[/quote]

As someone without a car who is there regularly I have no idea what you are talking about.  I have never seen anyone fall into traffic.  There is already a crossing under Rockville pike and bus stops that eliminate the need to cross the street at all.  [/quote]
