[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wouldn't be a fan of sharing long term with high school and other unknown entities but it's a beautiful building, closer to metro, and better than some of the other options that were floating around.[/quote]

Come on DCUM, surely you can do better than this?  You must have more petty ways to rain on our parade than this. I mean a beautiful, historic building that's near Metro, near the current location and has beautiful green space and plenty of room can't be perfect, there must be DCUM complaints to put those "mean" Lee moms in their place.[/quote]

I don't argue with you one bit. It's an amazing building with great space, closer to metro (did you not read my post). My concerns still stand. Lee is used to sharing space so it's probably NBD for them but sharing space with an unknown school permanently (that is nowhere close to a school like ITS) would raise concern for me. Lee is a smallish school, one does wonder how the finances will impact them long term. Nobody can't have it all (Wel, YY) so yes there has to be sacrifices. Congrats on the building.[/quote]

Financially, I don't think it will be a big stretch because there are a lot of other entities in that building footing the bill.  [b]We only have two floors and the room we need/will need[/b].  We don't own it (community hope owns it). We do have a long term lease, and I'm not sure  how long but we were told they were interested in buildings with 25 year leases renewable for another 25.

And for things like the playground, we have an untapped PTA ready to give.

The sharing may bother others but not me (I'm very conservative financially and prefer this to taking on a building alone)

Oh well that makes a lot more sense financially. Congrats.[/quote]
