The uptick in crime including carjackings has led to the Washington Capitals and Wizards to purchase land across the river in Alexandria Va.
That's Reagan National in the background and the new Potomac Yards metro stop in the foreground. Arena scheduled to be finished in 2028. So much development there now.

I dont know. I've spent a lot of time in Chinatown and I've never felt unsafe. It sure seems like the area is going to have all the ambiance of a strip mall in the suburbs. I mean, I love Alexandria itself but that just aint it.

Yeah, i mean i grew up in the DC suburbs. Lived most of my life there. I never felt unsafe either. I rode the metro all over the place. Sorta sounds like a bit of a cop out. DC city council has an updated offer for the ownership group today. We shall see. I'm just of the opinion that basically all stadiums/arenas should be in the city they serve. This Potomac Yards site is very close to the city however.
