You don't think Safeway is taking the easy way out by negotiating with the ARD (or the Coalition to Stop Tenleytown OverDevelopment, or the Tenley Neighborhood Asssociation or whatever of the multiple neighborhood groups the ARD is?) in lieu of actually proposing something that makes sense for its location with some density on the avenue because of fears of the kinds of delays the Giant in Cleveland Park or 5220 Wisconsin has endured at the outlook that you share?

I would think a less impactful development that has density on Wisconsin Avenue and green space adjacent to the residential neighbors in the rear would be a much better solution.

It would be within zoning parameters, avoid a PUD and be a more sustainable solution for the long term.

Instead, the ARD is cheering for a one-story suburban style grocery store with a black top because it is "ration". Bully for you, bad for our grandchildren.
