And here I always thought we'd die in a nuclear blast. But No, it's going to be a slow, brutal strangulation that kills us off. What's particularly nasty is that the article doesn't even mention that stupid government boondoggle of the Mark Center building that bribed it's way into getting built where Shirley Highway crosses under Seminary Road. That's going to create total and complete gridlock throughout most of the West end of Alexandria. There are large portions of that area and Arlington that are going to become virtual islands of desperation amidst seas of construction and destruction.
