[quote=Anonymous]My family moved to McLean in the 70's, and now my husband and I have been living nearby the intersection since 1996. Back in my grade school years McLean was considered a nice suburb with ease for my dad to get to DC. Over the years I have seen so many parcels of open land disappear, to allow for infill of residential and businesses. The corner in question was not dangerous, but it is now as stands. The diagonal corner with the exclusive stay out of our rich townhouse development used to be a vegetable stand on the corner. There are so many farm and home acres gone or subdivided now, that I understand those of us being called NIMBYS.  The suburbs of McLean have miraculously managed to stay attractive because of careful planningand a great MCA. Sunrise is not needed at that location and would be a detriment to the intersection by cramming a huge facility onto the site. Yes, we nimbys have a valid concern about our kids crossing that intersection. They took away our busing.  Now, if Sunrise is allowed, then can I construct 3 more levels on top of my little house, exceeding the 35 foot height rule? Seems fair to me.[/quote]
