      <![CDATA[The person that owned this land only sold if it was mixed use (apts/businesses/retail) so it wasn't the developers idea that West Broad Village is what it is. I know that because I called the rezoning office when the sign went up that the farm that used to be there was being rezoned. I preferred the farm.

      <![CDATA[Mr. O'Keefe - Interesting comment, although your statement that "things are either bad or good" is certainly questionable. <br>
<br>
I am, quite frankly, surprised to hear that my decision to purchase a beautifully designed, well constructed, environmentally friendly "Energy Star qualified," "Earth Craft" Eagle town home in a unique and innovative community in the lively Short Pump area reflects adversely on my morals.

The dominant features of the community are all auto-oriented; the multiple awesome parking structures, the yawning garage doors on every house, the acres of surface parking, the six lanes of traffic at the entrance.

      <![CDATA[I respectfully refer the critics of WBV to the organizing body for New Urbanism, the Congress for the New Urbanism founded in 1993. Its foundational text is the Charter of the New Urbanism, which says:<br>
"We advocate the restructuring of public policy and development practices to support the following principles: neighborhoods should be diverse in use and population; communities should be designed for the pedestrian and transit as well as the car; cities and towns should be shaped by physically defined and universally accessible public spaces and community institutions; urban places should be framed by architecture and landscape design that celebrate local history, climate, ecology, and building practice."<br>
<br>
WBV IS "diverse in use and population."

      <![CDATA[Kevin - Once again you speak without the facts when you state "I'm glad Eagle was able to bilk retirees out of another half mil before they hit the dirt." Check the financials - Eagle is in a very strong cash position and is the number one buidler in the Richmond area.

      <![CDATA[Mr. Bonbright, I am curious to know what about living in an apartment encourages people to consume mail-order steak. Are the apartments in WBV not equipped with refrigeration?<br>
<br>
I live in an apartment myself in downtown Manhattan (Style reader because I was born in RVA and lived there until 2012) yet by some miracle I am able to eschew mail-order steak for a relatively balanced, healthy and inexpensive diet.

      <![CDATA[Kevin - I'm not sure where to start! Yes, the architecture in the Fan is magnificent, but many have concerns, valid or not, about the traffic, noise, crime, lack of parking, the cost, etc. The use of the term "Brownstone" by the developer is a marketing tool and certainly not intended to imply that the product is the same as those in Brooklyn, the Fan, etc.<br>
<br>
Just to correct you on a minor point - none of the "Brownstones" use "vinyl siding."

      <![CDATA[Mr. Bonbright, the reason I'm critical of the "urban brownstones" is because: <br>
<br>
1)They display none of the characteristics of an actual brownstone aside from the fact that they are physically attached to the houses on either side. They are neither urban or brownstones, the ridiculous moniker only works because most of the purchasers have likely never been to Brooklyn or have even the slightest clue what a brownstone actually is.<br>
<br>
2)They are objectively ugly from an architectural standpoint.

      <![CDATA[West Broad Village is not even close to "New Urbanism" it is exactly the same as every other strip mall in Short Pump with the notable exception of having apartments above the stores. <br>
<br>
Location: As mentioned, West Broad St. is difficult to cross and will likely stay that way as the resulting gridlock from a 1 minute cross signal would more than offset any perceived benefit.
