	Building a Better Place
		2900 Clarendon in Arlington County is a model for tax-efficient, environmentally friendly development that contributes to neighborhood vitality.

	WALKArlington: Walkable Community - Master Plans and Studies: Clarendon Sector Plan
		Clarendon in 2003 is, to put it mildly, the seat of coolness on the north side of Arlington.
		Clarendon's persona as a low-rise, "urban village-style" enclave, respite with a central open space adjacent to a Metro station, is where east (Arlington) meets west; where hip District residents meet hip suburbanites (Claredon's Iota was the scene of a recent West Wing episode); and where tourists are now beginning to gather in measurable quantities.
		Clarendon is interested in developing accessible open space large enough to allow for festivals and other major events, as well as additional open space(s) to serve as destinations for pedestrians (and others) in search of rest or recreation.

	washingtonpost.com: Style Live: Music Chat
		If METRO wants to promote ridership, and if the city wants to promote a safer city that provides alternate transportation to reduce the number of alcohol-drug related accidents then the METRO should be open at least until 3:00 am to allow everyone the opportunity for a "safe" ride home.
		Metro should be open twenty-four hours,but if there had to be a time it was shut down it should be at 2am at the least and 3am is an ideal time.
		The public should stop worrying about the safety of the metro cars and refocus their concerns on the extreme amount of traffic and danger that exists on our highways that are costing way more than what it would take to keep the metro open until 3 or 4 am.

		Clarendon's reputation for good food and lively bars is very well deserved, as people from throughout the DC metropolitan area come to the neighborhood to sample the ethnic restaurants.

	Transit-Oriented Development (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Arlington, of course, is directly across the Potomac from downtown Washington and is thus comparable to Camden vis a vis Center City in terms of location.
		After Metro arrived, the town sprouted a lot of parking garages, functioning as an "end-of-the-line" Metro station; some limited commercial office space also sprung up, but sections of the older retail area remained blighted and continued to decline.
		Already roughly 30 percent of commuter trips are by transit (25 percent) or bike/pedestrian (5 percent), and planners are aiming even higher to a 50 percent non-auto "split." Projections call for an increase from 57,000 to 97,000 daily "ons and offs" at the Silver Spring transit center once it and related development are completed.

		And it is time to refocus America's efforts on the wider struggle yet to be won.
