[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I feel like every place is more generic.  All across the coutnry I see the same restaurants and the exact same looking apartments and townhomes—everything is owned and supplied by the same mega businesses.  I saw an interview with a famous restiajrantejr recently (now I can’t remember who, but you would know him), and he was basically saying it’s nearly impossible to come up in the restaurant scene now as an independent and he would never make it now.  It’s the same with the little stores and so forth….tje headwinds are all again unique and quirky.  [/quote]

That is depressing but probably true.

Still with intentionality and will, more could be done by[b] Bethesda urban planners[/b] to mitigate the overwhelming blandness [/quote]

There are no such people.

There are property owners, that's who you are talking about.

No that’s not who I am talking about. Property developers don’t get to operate in vacuums with no accountability or inputs - yet anyway.

The role of the Committee is to coordinate and monitor the progress of development and address implementation of the recommendations in the Approved and Adopted Bethesda Downtown Sector Plan.
