[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Soooo... western Pike isn't moving to Wakefield and Arlington Forest is?[/quote]

That's one of 3 options.  Nothing is decided yet.  In no option does the Western Pike move to Wakefield.[/quote]

In one option, one of the western pike PLs goes to Wakefield. [/quote]

Yes!  APS found the ONE planning unit of the Western Pike, from Carlin Springs elementary, no less!  - that has NO FARMS kids in it!  And no siblings coming up.  I couldn't believe it when I saw it!   Amazing work, APS![/quote]

No, you're mistaken. That PU you're describing is not on the Western Pike, it's the area between Arlington Forest and Buckingham (I think it's technically Buckingham). It includes the Methodist Church and Culpepper Gardens, the AH complex for seniors. So it's no wonder that there aren't many kids here. Not much family housing.

Oh ok.    So APS is moving a senior living AH complex to Yorktown.  I can't even.  This just keeps getting better and better.
I would cry, but I have no tears left.[/quote]

No, it may be moved to Wakefield.[/quote]

Oh wait, I think I see what unit you were referring to as being moved to YHS. That's 3503. Yeah, that neighborhood is not one lumped in with "west Pike." It's Glencarlyn, which is a completely middle class and not all that racially or ethnically diverse, relative to other parts of south Arlington. But there's no way to move the units way down along the Pike to YHS without bypassing all those middle class PU's that are between 50 and Columbia Pike. At least this way, YHS will be gaining some Southies. That's something.[/quote]
