This targets parts of Councilmanic District 4 just south and east of Aspen Hill proper.
The troubled swath of neighborhoods -- which lie between Georgia Avenue and Veirs Mill Road, north of Randolph Road and south of Matthew Henson State Park -- was generally built in the timeframe of the very early 1950s and typically has a lot of smaller houses, generally with a semi-finished walk-up attic, semi-finished basement, two or three bedrooms, and one or two bathrooms, perhaps as small as 850 square feet. It has been particularly hard-hit by the housing-bubble and the following collapse of the real-estate bubble and construction-employment bubble. It's got one of the highest rates of foreclosure and "walk away" vacancies.
This is definitely in the region of concerns for the Greater Glenmont Civic Association and its members.
The meeting is scheduled for:
Tuesday 31 March 2009, 7:00-9:00PM
Wheaton High School Cafeteria
12601 Dalewood Drive
