Wizards & Caps maybe moving to Potomac Yards has the same stink IMO as Amazon HQ2 to Pentagon City.

This whole National Landing strip (ha) has so so so many advantages, and could/should have been allowed to develop into a proper city without these dumbass megaprojects.

@bikepedantic Do they also undermine school funding by using TIF? That's how Baltimore sold out its kids to Under Armour. (And others on the north side of the harbor.) MD assumes in the state allocations that the city is getting the full local tax base only it gave that money away.

@HayiWena I think there is some limited TIF, but wasn’t part of the Amazon wooing, that was mostly state money
