[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nowhere outside Rosslyn-Ballston corridor is walkable. Stop fooling yourselves. [/quote]

This has been brought up multiple times in this thread, including that you can get a SFH for under $2M in these corridors if you’re OK with not having new construction, but apparently ToV is the walker’s paradise we’ve all been glossing over. Weird because every time I drive down Maple I don’t even see people walking their dogs on it. Only walkers I see are crossing for the W&OD trail. [/quote]

Maple st has sidewalks, but it's not a pleasant experience as you have to dodge cars constantly going in and out of the many parking lots literally lining this street. And because it also congested, car traffic and cars pulling in and out of parking lots doesn't abate. Maybe if you walk around at 6am?  :lol:   There are side streets and areas where one can walk, it's just Maple st is not it.  One street long drag is a bad design for both drivers and pedestrians given how congested it is.  It's likely this way because it developed when the area was not nearly as congested with a lot fewer businesses.  But it's outgrown itself. [/quote]
