I read the article as their will be housing where the old library was.

Mall security can’t arrest I thought - they would need to call HCPD?

Pro Wash off 108 is a suggestion

very nice, thanks for sharing

"Today, Columbia is more diverse than ever. Census figures show the community is 49% white and 28% Black, with fast-growing Asian (13%) and Hispanic or Latino (9%) populations."

Diversity is there....

"The troubling thing we found was an increasing or creeping segregation that appears to be occurring in Columbia with the isolation of African Americans from the white community and decrease of exposure between racial groups in Columbia"

The only land available to build on is far way from Oakland Mills/Long Reach/Hammond/Wilde Lake which supports her claim of whites living farther from African Americans. I think we are in a catch 22. It's a zoning issue.

Thanks ill check it out

Curious if you have examples of it being more segregated. Maybe the mall development recently. River Hill does not have apartments like Oakland Mills or Long Reach do. We've always thought Columbia was at max capacity. The place OP is referring to is such a weird spot to build.

This is what OP is talking about if anyone is curious. Look at the view from your front window on the 3rd level when these things get built, beautiful view of 108 LOL what an eye soar

Yeah the morning commute the traffic leaving the Dorsey area between the two lights is bad. The distance between the two lights and those lights are out of sync to handle more people in that area. The townhouses I imagine would be a continuation of those brick ones behind it. What a god awful view of 108 for 500k lol

I think folks are upset that the developers aren’t in sync with the Rouse vision. Developers aren’t building villages anymore for communities sake. They are doing more houses in smaller areas for more profit.

No, but I got a great deal on an acre of land during the Rouse era where my neighbor isn’t wall to wall to me for twice the cost.

The amount of money needed to run for county executive requires some wealthy people to be in your pocket in order to fund the race.

I am sorry I should of called. Things get taken care of faster over a phone call than an angry email :( Thanks for taking time out your day.

I revised my comment to include Route 29.

I think I’m just in shock it’s been their for 3 years. Big green direction sign laying next to the guardrail/wake-up strips. I’m upset the mowers just mowed around it for 3 years. Nobody cares the state tax money sign has a floor point of view.

Looks like I’m not the only one. 12am revers

Used to play soccer on the field for Howard county back in the 90s
