@alexB; legal, for many people, is the same as trickery. Speaking as an attorney today...

We are talking about two things: You're arguging for the legal defijition of FAR for zoning and construction. That's fine, and I see where the air right could make a difference there. But I am going back to the first point -- that the higher density buildings in Rosslyn actually diminsh from the quality of life. And that is true as well -- regardless of how you define FAR.

Building dense around Metro stations is great. And DC could do a better job there. But what is stopping Rosslyn level buildings in Friendship heights, Tenleytown, Cleveland Park isn't federal height limits.

I've love to see Logan Circle/Dupont with every building the size of the Cairo. I doubt it would be an interesting.
