[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]16:10 again.  I just checked the map, and it appears the edge of the rezoning for Murch is actually five blocks from the school, not six.  So if you live right at the southwest corner of 36th and Albemarle, just on the wrong side of the street for the new boundary line, in the absolutely most impacted spot by re-zoning, ... you would be 0.3 miles (5 blocks) from Murch, and 0.6 miles (8 blocks) from Hearst.  Admittedly closer to Murch, but not a major difference either way IMHO.[/quote]
[quote]Those houses are about 10 blocks or .7 miles from Hearst. 10 blocks or .7 miles is hardly an unreasonable distance from a school, but is about twice as far as they are now.[/quote]
16:10 again.  Hello my nerdy sister at 16:22!

We're clearly thinking along the same lines, and close enough to be within the margin of error.  My Bing map started at 36th and Albemarle, and counted 8 blocks (3 south to Warren, one over to 37th, and then 4 more down to Tilden).  Bing calls that 0.6 walking.  I'm guessing your map site took a different route.  [/quote]
