What they need is high density mixed income housing. But I doubt anyone will do it. Luxury condos are not going make a dent by themselves.

honestly? I don't think it matters (and academic studies back that up).

plus other buildings all up and down Wisconsin aren't particularly expensive, especially by DC standards. what matters is having customers within easy distance. once you get off wisconsin, density falls very quickly.

basically what happens is when new 'expensive' apartments come in, other apartments get a bit cheaper. if you live nearby, I can point you in the direction of decent and not too-expensive units in buildings on Mass, CT, NM, and Wisconsin ave.
