OK, let's do that. Let's compare North Arlington, VA, which has had
I66 running through it for about 20 years, with NE Washington DC,
which was "spared" its freeway; one scheduled for the same
construction period. Density is about the same in both cases. Let's
compare changes in property value, business starts/failures, school
SAT scores, and crime rates. We can compare some other statistics if
you'd like.

Up for it?
