These are valuable assets that will contribute to the economical viability if properly protected much as they contribute to Georgetown, Cleveland Park, etc.<br /><br />On the other hand, I would relax the standards such as windows, colors, and additions so as not to freak out citizens that they would loose too much control over their properties. <br /><br />Lastly, I would get the historians at the Office of Preservation out of the business of dictating what style buildings in historic neighborhoods should be, and concentrate on preserving our history.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22305958.post-84148748152091587882010-01-28T14:19:05.902-05:002010-01-28T14:19:05.902-05:00That section of Georgia Avenue is not a Historic D...That section of Georgia Avenue is not a Historic District. the HPO office has nothing to do with that area.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22305958.post-15259335666931883952010-01-28T13:23:35.508-05:002010-01-28T13:23:35.508-05:00Clarify your statement, if you could, Anonymous. ...Clarify your statement, if you could, Anonymous.

The new trolly line will revive that corridor and make it competative with Wisconsin and Connecticut Avenue for the simple reason that it's blessed with all that great old time main street architecture. Now, if the Historic Preservation Office would do what it should, and got to the hard work of preserving history, we might be able to hand this legacy off to our grand kids.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
