Collection at Chevy Chase features high end retail outlets from large international jewelers and designers. Since we already have that we don't need duplicates at Westwood.<br /><br />The high end retail we are pushing for at Westwood needs to focus on more of a boutique approach. Bespoke handbag makers who only sell their wares in Westwood and nowhere else, for instance. An artisan truffle oil boutique that offers a more thoughtful selection than the 'every oil' approach seen on Bethesda Row. <br /><br />Mind you I am also advocating for some 'everyday clothes' type retailers at Westwood. Thomas Pink and Vineyard Vines are must-haves.<br /><br />I definitely see this vision of high end retail coexisting with the collection. If what we want is not typical of past Equity One projects, well then we need to pull some muscle and start working now to make sure what I suggest is what we end up getting in the end. Sounds like a nice project for myself and other progressive activists!Poppyhttp://www.progressivebethesda.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28521945.post-27612449322372358892016-05-09T21:33:03.649-07:002016-05-09T21:33:03.649-07:0012:29' Criticism of government corruption is &...12:29' Criticism of government corruption is "bullying"?

Personally, I would prefer they break that promise in terms of having a great restaurant or upgrading to Wegmans, for example. But their retail portfolios elsewhere do not reflect the Collection at Chevy Chase type of retail you are hoping for.

Many of my neighbors would as well.<br /><br />Also, please don't take this the wrong way, but if the clothes people wore in the protest pictures that Robert posted are any indication, the residents of Westbard won't be able to afford to shop at the new upscale retail offerings anyway. I think Equity One recognizes that Westbardians would not form their customer base anyway.Poppyhttp://www.progressivebethesda.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28521945.post-1786924282890133312016-05-09T16:21:54.542-07:002016-05-09T16:21:54.542-07:00POPPY,
