Should Downtown Go Cheaper?
As a condo owner, how can this bit not escape notice? WaPo comes through with another article us downtowners can love (or not). The subject? Taxes.

Should Downtown Go Higher?
We point you to an informative and thought provoking architectural story in WaPo. Much of downtown is built out and some of the last area lots are already slated for projects such as The Dumont. For the few parcels left or for rehab projects, should 130 feet be the height cap for buildings? How high should DC go?
Gotta Sing? Gotta Dance?
