Is this the same as renaming Rockville Maryland as "North Bethesda"?

Love it when the Arlington liberals try to cancel African American names and culture.


What's the reasoning behind changing this name? Why can't liberals just leave well-enough alone? Talk about wearing out their welcome.


The name required change for equity reasons just as the schools required name changes.

True. Looks like the four mile run valley plan includes the road from the Pike to Shirlington. Not a renaming of green valley.

Duh, it's Arlington. We have virtually no blacks here. I think there may be a few bi-racial kids at my school, but there dads are baseball players so that doesn't really count.

How to create an acronym from Four Mile Run Valley? 4MirV? 4 Mile Run Valley is way too long to say and not hip. Maybe just “The V”?

not wanting to rebrand highlights exactly why some people get richer and some don’t. Rebrand, market aggressively, over inflate the price for their home, sell and make a nice fat profit on the sale. Take the profit and move on.
