Or
Will they fall apart and will their ugly architecture become a joke among future generations?
A dated relic from a time before flying cars, commuters using jetpacks and outer space family vacations.

"Look at those hideous condos."

"Those stupid fucking people from the 2010s who spent all of that money on those ugly condos just to live in a walkable community near public transportation."

"I can commute from my spacious 3000 sq ft Fredericksburg home to my job in downtown DC in less than 10 minutes on my jetpack."

"Who in the hell has the time to sit all day and wait for a train?"

No jet packs any time soon. We will see more traffic, crime, accidents, trash, rodents, Ebola, people, pest, is there a limit to what I think will happen? murder , Violence, Yes Fairfax Co. will be the joke of the country.

Future SECTION 8 Public housing.

Mosaic district will be Baileys Crossroads # 2.

You couldnt pay me to live in one of those buildings much less make me pay to live in one.

More likely, "I can commute using my virtual presence from the comfort of my home wherever that may be."

Commuting is for those few unfortunates still doing manual labor.

Once the streetcar is finished, Bailey's will be Georgetown #2. Meanwhile, EYA/Mosaic and the Halstead/MillCreek complexes are soaring stars. They've done such a better job than Pulte has at Metro West. A studio in Halstead is going for $1650, and the area hasn't been fully built out yet. These will be prestige addresses for decades.

Perhaps he wants to leave the house to get away from his wife and kids bitching at him for various reasons?

They want it to have a European vibe, since the Euros are ssooo much cooler than us with their cheap, plastic Ikea crap.

For decades?
LOL
That is highly unlikely.

People using jetpacks? Flying cars?


If people drink and drive, what will happen with drunk flying? Drunk while using a jetpack?

Blessed are the murderous.

Peasants living in yurts on the steppes are cooler than you.

Yuppies, Asians and Indians love the whole "urban living" thing without really being urban.
All the town centres, corners, places, districts, etc, that have gone up with shopping/office space/condos in the last decade, they're for safe, cube dwelling, medicated folk who love the efficiency of urban living without any of the risk.

I'd like to get some crack-head savages, dealers and a gaggle of schizophrenics and drop them off at Fairfax Corner, RTC and Mosaic. Get some of that authentic inner-city flair
Actually, there should be some sort of low income housing quota for all future town center/planned community development in the area...and Anthropologie and Nordstrom Rack and Great American Restaurants should start accepting EBT.

Seriously. Who looks at these places and thinks, "Now THAT'S where I want to live!".

The condos at Reston-Wheile Ave will stand the test of time because a world famous architect designed them. The advertisement next to the Metro entrance explains who the architect is and why he does what he does.

Keep your shirt on. They will fly themselves. You just input the destination and it will take you to a designated landing zone.

Okay, so when some drunk or crazy person inputs The Pentagon or The White House, it'll be lulzy when they get shot down by a .50 BMG anti-materiel rifle.

Blessed are the murderous.

Yes. That's exactly what will happen. Thanks for sharing your immense foresight.

Will the street car also have million dollar stops? Just like the bus stops Arlington put in? That might make it run over budget.

That sounds about right.

It reminds me of a line from "Suburbia." I think it's Flea that says something like, "These suburbs... the ghettos of the future."

I predict that this "modern" architecture will be the equivalent of Mid-Century Modern; done right, it's interesting, attractive and is evocative of its time. Poorly executed, it quickly becomes an eyesore, is wildly out of place and appears cheap.

Too soon to decide if this new construction is done right or not...leaning towards prediction that it will be laughable in 20 years as "very 2010" and they'll be extensive renovations to the exteriors in less than 15 years.

Remember the "modern" flat-roofed houses? Terrible, cheap imitations of Frank Lloyd Wright's style that missed the mark? Remember the many Fairfax County developments of "contemporary" homes built circa 1978 - all dark stained wood, no shutters, no siding, with unpinned windows? Look how quickly those houses were painted, shutters and siding added...

And, here's a prime example of a mass-produced "contemporary" home that screams "tacky mid-1970s" that's been stripped of any original design in a poor attempt to make it slightly more palatable and more standard-issue suburban style. Terrible failure of a renovation, but if you see pockets of these once contemporary houses, note that they're all being torn down or renovated extensively.

Zoinks! That's hideous and is evocative of the worst elements of the 1970s.

That grey building that looks like a giant CONEX with an odd yellow highlight? Holy crap, that's... uh... I don't even know what to say.

It looks like it came out of a flat box from Ikea. And that just screams temporal and cheap as shit. Like the architect was trying to capture the essence of the slums where he once went whoring in Berlin or Leipzig.

Or, more likely, he was trying to rip off the Barking Town Square renovation architecture (itself horribly-designed and already laughably dated). And somehow, when ripping off Barking Town Square, he succeeded in making something even more soul-less and ugly.

And that 1800 Wilson building? It's like somebody took a challenge to make new urbanist aesthetics even more drab and depressing.
