I was driving through Great Falls a while ago and saw what passes for development in the horse property district.
(Great Falls is where I think Fairfax County
ought to look when they moan about how they need to put more $1M townhouses and
16-story buildings up with $3500/month apartments in the People’s Republic because
“we need to accommodate all the low income people moving here.” Slap a few
high-rise buildings up along Old Georgetown Pike and let the Republican voters
experience a change in density when they trot over to L’Auberge Chez François
for din-din.)
Anyway, I can’t recall what used to be here—probably a couple of slightly shabby old places; maybe even some empty acres around a former farm house. I don’t even know that there was an actual street. But I had to pull over to take pix because looky what they got now:
I swear, each of these monstrosities is big
enough to be a hotel. Who actually needs that amount of space?
