[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Apparently, the city's approach to revitalizing Wards 7 & 8 is to build nice facilities there and then force everyone across the city to go there, no matter how inconvenient. Thearc, Carefirst, Nats Youth Baseball Academy, etc etc. The facilities don't really add to the time or money I spend in surrounding neighborhoods. But they do add A LOT to the amount of time I spend on 695.[/quote] Land is cheaper there and often publicly owned. Carefirst is on the St. Es property. Buying similar land WOTP like the Intelsat property would cost the District millions. And most kids live in Wards 7 and 8 so it makes sense for most kid-focused stuff to be there. [/quote] People on DCUM would have an absolute cow if the city has tried to build those things WOTP regardless of the cost because it'd bring poors into their neighborhood occasionally. It would never happen anyways.[/quote]
