The reality, as we learned would be far more troublesome for our communities."It's time for EnCap to simply leave the stage so that North Arlington, along with our sister communities of Rutherford and Lyndhurst can now decide what's best for our residents and homeowners.

      Orange vs. Blue: Condos on the Metro Line in Arlington & Alexandria
      Among the attractions of condo living in Northern Virginia are affordability compared to single family homes and townhouses, less maintenance than a large home, and convenience of location.  Location plays a big factor especially in Arlington and Alexandria where many condominium owners commute to work in D.C.  As the two suburbs closest to the District, Arlington and Alexandria are always in high demand among homebuyers and these two areas have not been hit as hard by the housing decline as many of the further out suburbs in Fairfax County, and especially in Prince William and Loudoun Counties.  One factor that plays a large role in the commuting equation and thus in choice of location is presence of the subway, or the Metro, as we fondly call it here in the Metropolitan Wa

It gets covered in vibrant green Christmas wreaths. The wreaths are donated by a man named Merrill Worcester who is the owner of the Worcester Wreath Co. in Maine. From the Worcester Wreath Co.'s website:Each year Worcester Wreath donates Maine wreaths to adorn the headstones of those who serve and those who sacrificed to preserve our freedoms. In 2007, over 10,000 wreaths are destined for the annual wreath-laying ceremonies at Arlington. In addition, 2,500 wreaths will be sent to Togus National Cemetery in Augusta, Maine. Worcester Wreath also donates ceremonial wreaths that will be used as part of the Wreaths Across America events at over 230 State and National veterans cemeteries all across the Country.Sometimes a hero is one who sacrifices everything in their life to help others.

Once could not have envisioned a better patriot… there should be more like you Merrill!!! Rest easy, sleep well my brothers Know the line has held, your job is done Rest easy, sleep well Others have taken up where you fell, the line has held Peace, Peace and Farewell… For those of you who have not noticed, the media neglects to find anything good with soldiers and the like these days… because it is easier to report negatively. Sites such as the ones above should be the norm. Let it be known

The owner, Merrill Worcester, not only provides the wreaths, but covers the trucking expense as well. He's done this since 1992. A wonderful guy. Also, most years, groups of Maine school kids combine an educational trip to DC with this event to help out. Making this even more remarkable is the fact that Harrington is in one the poorest parts of the state.

      November Figures are in for Arlington Home Sales
      And the results are truly a mixed bag.  For all of the media hype about what a bad market it is right now, we’re still seeing some good successes in these closer in markets.  Frankly, we’re beginning to see successes overall where homes are priced appropriately and presented well, no matter where they’re located.  Sometimes it is still taking some time, which is frustrating for the sellers.  However, a home seller in the DC area can have hope! Here’s how the numbers look for just the month of November, 2007 and how it compares with just last November: November 2007 Arlington County Home Prices and Sales Figures: What I see in this is that drastically fewer homes were sold pretty much across the board during the November 2007 period when compared with 2006; additionally, at least for just this month, average selling prices were off in the condo market, but held steady or even saw increases over last year for the single family home market.&nbs

      Filming in Arlington
      ARLINGTON -- Prison break in downtown Arlington? Not to worry.The Fox network is scheduled to be in town today filming scenes for its prime-time drama Prison Break, city officials said Monday.Motorists are encouraged to avoid West Street and Main Street between 6 and 11 a.m. Traffic will be diverted to Center, Abram, Cooper and Division streets.Streets near where the scenes will be shot, including the West Street railroad underpass, will be restricted to necessary business and emergency traffic during filming, Arlington police said.No word on how the downtown Arlington scenery fits the show, whose main character, Michael Scofield, (played by Wentworth Miller) is in a Panamanian prison.Fans of the show, which has also filmed in downtown Fort Worth and Rockwall, will have to wait for the new episodes, which start in January, to find out.Source: Startelegram

      The Arlington Artifice: October 2007
      This recurring monthly post tracks the latest results of the housing market seen in Arlington Massachusetts.I choose Arlington as a result of the Boston Globe’s recently published and absurdly anecdotal and ludicrous farce about the town’s “hot” housing market.The ridiculous tone and outright mishandling of the housing data by the Boston Globe “reporter” would almost be comical if it weren’t for the fact that the Globe’s editor, Martin Baron, ALSO blundered seriously when he responded to my email about the discrepancies.Baron attempted to justify the articles contents and in so doing, he disclosed his poor and obviously unsophisticated abilities with even the most basic economic data.October’s results again confirm that Arlington is by no means a “stand out” amongst its neighboring towns as Baron suggested in his email and, in fact, is following along on a path wholly consistent with the trend seen in the county, state, region and nation.Why would an editor of a n

      Arlington National Cemetery - A National Treasure and A Moving Experience
      Yesterday I had the distinct honor and pleasure of visiting Arlington National Cemetery.  My grandfather, who served in Korea and in WWII is buried there, as is my grandmother who preceded him in death by almost 30 years – so we went to visit their gravesite and take in a little history, too.  It is a beautiful and peaceful place – the rows so precisely laid out, the beautiful fall colors around us and it was a gorgeous day.  There is so much ceremony here and I thought I would share with you some of what we saw – both with some facts and some photos.  First, you will see signs like the one to the left - and it’s nice - because it keeps the chit chat down and really serves as a reminder that we’re in a cemetery to honor those who have served our country. There are veterans buried here from every war that has involved our nation – over 290,000 servicemen and their family members have been laid to rest here About 24 burials are cond

      5 Fun (really!) Facts about Leaf Collection in Arlington County
      O-K Arlingtonians – Leaf Collection has officially begun.  Don’t you love this time of year?  Bright yellow, red and orange leaves adorn the trees and now has created a carpet of fall colors on the ground.  All of these leaves need to go somewhere!  Arlington County Environmental Services has leaf collection down to a science.  Here are some fast (and fun) facts that might be of interest: 1.  TWO Options for Leaf Collection: Arlington County Environmental Services offers us two options:  vacuum curb service, OR you may place leaves in the FREE biodegradable leaf bags that the county provides.  The leaf bags will ONLY be collected during this leaf pickup time of year – and won’t be picked up again until the spring yard waste pick-up.  Check the schedule to see when they will be in your neighborhood. 2.  TWO months of collection: Arlington County will make two leaf collection passes, one in November and again in December. 3.  What do they do with all these leaves?

      Condo Focus - Colonial Village - Arlington, VA 22201
      Today’s condo focus will highlight the quaint community of Colonial Village – nestled between Lee Highway and Wilson Blvd stretching almost the length between the Courthouse and Rosslyn Metros.  Construction began on this complex was in 1935 and was completed by 1940 - it was one of the area’s first apartment complexes and really set the standard for garden styled apartments for the era.  They are low brick buildings situated with appealing, landscaped courtyards and charming interiors. Conversion to condominium began in the late 1970’s and by the late ‘80’s all 700+ units were totally converted to condominium.  It’s a wonderful and desirable place for many to call “home.”  There are many restaurants and bars in close proximity – and with the metro accessibility, combined with affordability, Colonial Village continues to gain in popularity. Currently there are only 4 one-bedroom units available with

      October 2007 Sales Numbers for Arlington are in…
      …and the name of the game is slightly rising inventories – steady sales in keeping with 2006 and a few markets actually tapering off a bit. Here’s what October looked like: What I notice are condo sales falling off a bit, as well as average selling prices, but remember, I’ve said this before - it’s VERY difficult, if not impossible, to do trending off of 1 discrete month of sales data – this is just a snapshot compared with the same time last year.  So, for more solid trending data, let’s look at Year-To-Date info: From this I can see that we’re ahead on condo sales in almost all aspects from 2006 – we’re lagging a slight bit (less than 2%) in Single Family Detached home sales over 2006, but holding strong in the 22207 zip code.  However, Days on Market continue to plague us as we see longer averages than last year. Now, for absorption rates – last month everyone was so excited by my graphics, I decided to give you a little treat today and here’s how the cur

      Arlington’s Car-Free Diet…
      GOTCHA!!!  Bet you thought I said “care-free diet” - wouldn’t that be something?  But alas, I said “car-free” – what, might you ask, is that?  Well, have you noticed that over the past years, Arlington County has been trying to create a friendly co-existence between cars and bicycle and/or pedestrian traffic? As a result of their efforts, Arlington county was recognized with the national Bicycle Friendly Community Silver Level Award!  As I began to research, I stumbled upon a wonderful web resource for all of our local cycling enthusiasts – Bike Arlington! On Bike Arlington, you will find local bike routes, sometimes even guided tours at pre-set times that you can join in!  Maps, cycling advice, resources and a way to meet up with others that enjoy pedaling around town, too!  You can find helpful information on bike commuting, AND some updates on new, bicycle-friendly local developments — for example, there&r

      Arlington County Goes GREEN - Blog Action Day October 15, 2007
      Today is Blog Action Day!  It’s ONE day where bloggers around the world have pledged to devote their blog to matters of the environment.  Here in Arlington County, we have a wonderful building project called Green Home Choice Program.  I’m sure you’ve heard all about the “green movement” – as it relates to the housing industry, it involves updating processes and materials to build (or renovate) a more environmentally friendly home.  Arlington County has created a program called the Green Home Choice Program.  The program deals with everything from minimizing the amount and types of construction waste, to eco-friendly products and energy efficient (Energy Star) systems.  Having an energy efficient home can not only save you money each month on your energy bills, but also save in the long term on the use of natural resources, like water and gas.  Green homes can also help reduce the allergens and pollutants some

      Arlington Home Sales for September 2007
      It’s that time again – time to report numbers.  Frankly, we’re seeing a steady market.  No huge swings in any direction.  Condos are still moving quite well, average sales prices are remaining steady or are experiencing slight increases and, has been the case all year, days on market (on average) are longer this year than last.  Here’s how September looked: And here’s how we stand year-to-date compared with 2006: As for absorption rates, we’re still looking pretty good:   So, with that done – the message is this:  IF you’re considering a purchase, it’s a great time to be a buyer.  There is more inventory and the rates are still relatively good!  AND, conversely, if you’re considering getting your home ready to market, if priced right, and properly prepared, there are buyers out there!  So, whatever your real estate needs might be, feel free to give me a call to di

      The Surprising Truth about Jury Duty in Arlington County
      Yes, I have been called upon to serve Jury Duty by Arlington County.  At first – I think my first thought was, “I can’t serve Jury Duty now - I’ve got too much going on!”  C’mon, let’s be truthful – isn’t that the most natural response? So for a month, I’ve been preparing my strategies, listening to other wise souls tell stories of how they narrowly escaped, or what tactics I should use in order to be excused.  So, as requested, Monday morning, October 1, I showed up to see what was in store for me.  Oh, and by the way, the hardest part about being there yesterday morning was that we couldn’t have our cell phones…  WHAT?  No CELL PHONE???  Crazy – so after I got over that… I looked around the room and saw folks from all walks of life enter that room; all ages, many interesting dress styles, etc… all reading the pamphlet the nice officer handed us in the hallwa

      Day workers - Herndon and Arlington
      My good friend Israel posted on his blog about two local governmental jurisdictions (the one where I live, and the one where he lives) and their respective attitudes toward immigrants who depend on day labor to survive.This issue has been weighing on my heart, at least a little, for a while - at least since I moved to Herndon and started getting the free newspaper and reading the latest chapter of the saga of the day workers' center on the front page of each issue. Here are some random thoughts:Yay for the Arlington County Board, but I'm not sure that resolution is anything other than a show of support in principal, which says, "we resolve, by continuing our current policies, to not be quite as nasty as some other local governments we might mention". It doesn't actually say that that they plan on doing anything new for day workers - such as, for example, creating an official, funded site - and I suspect that if someone tried to do new stuff, they'd meet with opposition in Arlingt

      O-K, we’ve all seen them – flying proudly in our neighbor’s, friend’s or perhaps our very own homes.  We have jokingly referred to them as the new Arlington County Flag, although I didn’t want to upset anyone by putting that in my title.  Have you guessed yet?  Of course, you need a few more clues – it’s red and about 8 1/2 x 11 in size – although the red quickly fades to white…  any guessers yet?  Yep, you got it, it’s the Building Permit. Last week when I was driving around I decided to stop and take a photo every time I saw one in a window.  Well, that only lasted for about 15 minutes - after almost causing several accidents, I realized it’s futile - they are EVERYWHERE.  I tried to get some statistics about the number of building permits issued, the penetration rates (e.g., 1 home out of every 8 has been issued a building permit in the last 12 months) but alas, no such information

      A New Place to Call Home for the Cowboys - Arlington, Texas
      By Rick Bedard The NFL Dallas Cowboys have been at the forefront of the League for more than forty years. They have consistently been a force on the field and are considered to be the most valuable sports franchise in North America. The Cowboys joined the league as an expansion team in 1960 and called the Cotton Bowl home for the following decade. Since 1971 the Dallas Cowboys and Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders have called Texas Stadium, a purpose built stadium, in Irving, Texas, home. All that will change in 2009 when Cowboys football moves to a new stadium in the city of Arlington, Texas. The city of Arlington founded in 1875, was named after General Robert E. Lee’s Arlington House, Arlington County, Virginia. In 1876 the railroad arrived and in 1884 the city was incorporated. Thriving as a result of cotton gins and farming, by 1910 Arlington was a city that boasted water, electricity natural gas, a telephone system and a public school system. Prior to World War II the population of A

      Well folks – the numbers just keep getting more and more interesting.  I have people ask me practically every day how the market is doing!  They hear gloom and doom stories on the news about properties just sitting on the market – about subprime lending problems – about skeptical buyers – sales in the toilet, basically.  Well, for yet another month, I’m intrigued and encouraged by the numbers I’m seeing. First, let me tell you that for unit sales of condos and single family homes in Arlington County, July was a stellar month!  Unit sales are still continuing to track at or over 2006 sales AS ARE AVERAGE SELLING PRICES.  What this means to sellers is STAY REASONABLY PRICED and there are buyers out there.  However, the other message I’ve been sending over the past months is that “Days on Market” have gone up - so sellers, sit tight, buckle in for the long haul, be smart when you price, get yourself a good

      Arlington Condos
      Today I had a great opportunity to show a selection of Arlington Condos to some new clients of mine – there are so many options in the condo market.  We were focused on some of the newer buildings along the Orange Line – we looked at a few units in 1800 Wilson, 1021 Garfield and Lexington Square.  Now, let me tell you - the inventory is surprisingly low and (as I’ve said in previous posts) prices are steady, if not higher than I’ve seen lately, at least in this market segment. It struck me how the buildings are defined by 1) proximity to metro 2) “neighborhood” 3) age of building and 4) building amenities.  When we were discussing 1800 Wilson, it was “between 2 metros, near great restaurants like Rhodeside Grill, Red Hot & Blue” etc…  Then, 1021 had the distinct benefit of being 2 blocks off of the fabulous Clarendon metro and restaurants/shops, etc…  Lexington Square is “nes

      There I was… and there “it” was… A couple of days ago I snuck into a Starbucks for a little treat.  I went to a different one than I usually go to – I try to mix it up a bit sometimes.  I happened to look across the road and noticed such an interesting piece of art… This was created by an artist named Jim Sanborn in 1988 for Arlington County and currently resides in a park on Clarendon Blvd between Clarendon and Courthouse.  There are several pieces in this particular park.  I just found it so interesting and am trying out some advice by a fellow blogger (if you’re reading, you know who you are) to incorporate more local photographs into my posts.  Local interest, they call it… So, here you have it for today – cool art!
