You can't take a bike or car on it and if you're gonna walk from Rosslyn to DC what's wrong with Key Bridge?! A ferry (2) for crossing Arlington to DC and back would make more sense, though not sure that would "solve" anything either. <br /><br />Yes, the roads are atrocious and at times straight up dangerous - and I'm from DC.

Fairlington has gone from being a source of starter homes and completely affordable 20 years ago to being a completely un-affordable "urban village" today. I completely resent Libby's, Scott's, and Scott's nannyism and micro-management of all aspects of our personal lives. No one will convene a task force composed of New Urbanist / Smart Growth fanatics to plan the redevelopment of Fairlington. All these neighborhood so-called "revitalizations" are done in secret at 2100 Clarendon Blvd., and announced after a year or two of deal-making and negotiation. The committees and commissions are all packed with Smart Growth facilitators. Anyone who complains is trashed by the Democratic Machine.22206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-963208964879498427.post-39653060746031292962016-07-11T08:19:02.675-04:002016-07-11T08:19:02.675-04:00Appears that almost everyone who is anyone in Arli...Appears that almost everyone who is anyone in Arlington insofar as decision-making either doesn't live in Arlington, lives in an enclave that is off-limits for redevelopment, is over 55 and looking to retire far away from Arlington, or all of the above.
