Thayer & Spring is one massive project. From certain spots, you almost think you're looking at two different construction sites, until you realize that's just another part of Thayer & Spring in the distance. I don't think I've seen anything like it in Montgomery County so far, in terms of the horizontal length.
Summer 2018 delivery date? Fuggetaboutit. No way. But when finished, the Fairfield Residential project will feature 415 units, 15% of which will be affordable. It will also boast 10,500 SF of retail, and 35100 SF of public space, including a green plaza, a through-block walkway, and public art displays.
"horizontal length"
ReplyDelete"Length" is by its very nature "horizontal". There is no such thing as "vertical length", which would be "height".
Which is why I said horizontal length, Einstein.
Delete"Length" is by definition horizontal. There is no other kind, Birdbrain. "Horizontal length" is as redundant as "vertical height".
DeleteHi Guys thank you for the English lesson. You made me read more on the subject. The words, height, length, width and depth used arbitrarily by many native English speakers in the real world. But it is good to know the proper way of using them.
DeleteFunny how Dyer bashes the "evil developers" then writes articles shilling for their projects.
ReplyDelete10:29: You're the one who said "evil developers" - I've never said that. A construction update isn't "shilling" for anybody. It's called hyperlocal news, punk.
Delete"It will also boast 10,500 SF of retail, and 35100 SF of public space, including a green plaza, a through-block walkway, and public art displays."
DeleteEveryone who reads this or your other blog knows that
you trash developers then you visit their construction sites after business hours and post glowing reviews. Make up your mind.
"Punk"??? Hahahaha I wonder if you've ever repeated these pitiful insults to a person's face?
Probably not, since your're a spineless troll who woefully and hilariously attempts to be a big bad bully online, but only ends up making yourself look even more pathetic.
12:28: I "trash" developers? Never happened. I've praised many projects. Calling for responsible growth that is actually supported by infrastructure like roads and school capacity isn't "trashing developers."
DeleteYou never give me a chance to call you a punk - you're always hiding behind a computer, using "Anonymous." I use my real name, which you don't have the guts to do.
I wouldn't hesitate to call a jackass who acted like you do on here a "punk" in real life. If I was pathetic, I'd be hiding anonymously behind a computer lashing out at people who are actually getting things done. Who is pathetic again? LOL
Haha now this is priceless.
DeleteJackass lol? What is this, 3rd grade recess? You literally have the maturity and intelligence of a toddler.
Ha you can't even manage to conduct even a single 1-1 interview, much less insult an adult to their face.
Between your willful ignorance and hilarious attempts at put-downs this blog is certainly more entertaining than the onion! Please sir, carry on.
10:25: Alas, if only you did have the maturity and intelligence of a toddler! Instead, your IQ is lower than your belt size.
Delete@ 10:29 AM - Especially since the project at Fenton & Sligo which he trashes is less than 1,000 feet from this one.
ReplyDeleteThis project is not on a residential street.
DeleteSo you're complaining that a vacant office building on a "residential street" is being converted to residential? I don't follow your reasoning, at all.
DeleteFenton Street is a "residential street"???
DeleteLol
12:11: Very simple: This project is turning jobs into more "bedroom community" housing that clogs our roads and classrooms. Did you even read the article before commenting, Einstein?
DeleteNice attempt to save face but you failed
DeleteYou already claimed it was a residential street NOW, which only a total idiot would say. Admit that you made a bs assertion and move on.
9:58: You are either trying to post about the other project on the wrong article, or you've simply lost your mind. The project in this article is on urban streets. It's the other project I correctly noted is on residential streets, right next to single-family homes.
DeleteAlthough your characterization of Fenton Street at Thayer Avenue as "residential" is ridiculous, it's even more ridiculous that you are criticizing the conversion of what you call "a non-conforming office building in a residential area" into... residential. You just criticize for the sake of criticizing, there is no consistency whatsoever in your arguments.
Delete9:01: Nobody even knows what you're talking about at this point, and apparently neither do you. WTF Nobody ever said Thayer & Spring was on a residential street. The office conversion project is on TWO residential streets, and was a totally separate article, dumbass.
DeleteLooking forward to it!
ReplyDeleteSS Penguin AKA Roald AKA Rugby AKA Maloney Concrete AKA I Remember Gifford's - are you looking forward to the Fenton & Sligo project, too?
ReplyDeleteHuh?
