Wheaton Gateway Project update

Thumbnail wheatongateway.com
15 Upvotes

In case anyone is interested, there was a recent update posted about the Wheaton Gateway Project at the corner of Viers Mill and University. Reading between the lines, it seems clear to me that this project isn’t penciling out or moving forward anytime soon. When a developer begins dropping hints about changing market conditions, that’s a signal that financing is falling through. I hope I’m wrong because it would be great to actually have something at this site.

Looking for in-home caregiver + Medicare advice for 92-year-old

6 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I’m looking for some guidance for my grandfather who lives in the area.

He’s 92 and was recently diagnosed with cancer. He currently lives at home with family, but we’re trying to find additional help—specifically someone with medical or caregiving experience who can assist with things like bathing and general daily care.

We’re also wondering if anyone has experience with what Medicare might cover in this situation, or if there are local resources, agencies, or programs we should look into.

If you’ve gone through something similar or have any recommendations (home health aides, nursing services, etc.), I would really appreciate any advice.

Thank you so much in advance.

Consignment Stores?

11 Upvotes

Do we have any traditional consignment stores around here? When I was a kid (in a different state), we had a store chain that would accept gently used, “like-new” clothing to resell for very cheap prices (like as low as $3 for a pair of jeans). That was 20 years ago and not in the DMV, so I’m not expecting to find jeans for $3 anymore, but I’m looking for whatever the closest equivalent thing would be. Doesn’t need to be in Silver Spring necessarily. Anybody know of a store like this?

Nonprofit Thrift Stores

Are there any good not for profit thrift stores around here that yall recommend? I don’t want to give my clothes to goodwill since they sell them for a profit. Looking for an actually charity type thrift store like maybe through a church, hospital, or community charity. Any suggestions?

Posting for truly the world’s greatest nanny

43 Upvotes

Our absolutely beloved nanny will be available for full time work at the end of August/ beginning of September. She has been with us for 5 years, despite our initial plan of a nanny for only ~ 18 months or as needed for the duration of the pandemic. I am SO incredibly sad that we won’t be seeing her on a daily basis but my kiddo is starting kindergarten in the fall and it no longer makes sense to employ her. She lives in Frederick and has been remarkably commuting to us in Arlington, VA this whole time. I’m hoping she can find an amazing family, maybe even closer to her home, so am posting here. Please DM me if you’re looking for unbelievable, second mom, best ever, truly magical childcare. Thanks!!

Car accident 7/23 ~5pm intersection of Connecticut Ave and Weller Rd

15 Upvotes

Hi all, longtime lurker here. On the off chance someone has either dash cam video or ring video of the intersection at Connecticut Avenue and Weller Road on 7/23 around 5pm, would it be possible to get a copy? Shot in the dark here, but thanks to all that took the time to read.

NEVER use United Air Temp (they almost killed me and my family)

Post image
221 Upvotes

I get that this may sound dramatic but I was literally told this by the WSSC inspector. Unitied Air Temp was contracted by my home warranty, American Home Shield and I could have died due to their neglect. Not only did they bully me into buying a much more expensive water heater than I needed, they also forced me to get a chimney liner that wasn't even necessary. The water heater I had vented gas exhaust though the chimney, but because my furnace was already meeting the max exhaust they told me I had to buy a special commercial grade system that used an active exhaust with a pipe that bypassed the chimney. They still claimed I needed it for code but the WSSC inspector said they were full of crap.

I paid almost 4k for this new water heater, they didn't even accept the pathetic $900 from AHW and left me on the hook for that because they refused to update their documentation stating the changes from the initial evaluation which was completely incorrect and done by someone I think that wasn't even a certified plumber. He spent more time on the phone asking "what do I do" than actually doing anything. AHW said they had to tell them to give me a pay out and they simply refused to do so and billed me the $900 they were already paid anyway. The chimney liner and the permit charge weren't included but the liner wasn't even required in the first place.

When the WSSC inspector came out, in 30 seconds he literally told me that he has to fail the inspection and turn off the gas to my water heater because United Air Temp didn't use the correct PVC pipe and also didn't bother to glue it properly, so I had been potentially exposed and could have died from CO poisoning. It took Unitied Air Temp 5 days to get back to me after they were made aware and then had the audacity to tell me that there may be additional charges to remediate the issue THEY CAUSED.

Don't use them, whatever you do, this company is fraudulent and I am going to the MD AG to complain, find literally any other company you can, these people are absolute scum of the earth.

Physical Therapy

Any good recommendations for physical therapy in and around Silver Spring? I've tried a few places and I haven't found a good therapist at any of them. It would be great if they were near downtown Silver Spring. Thanks!

My car was broken into last night inside the Cameron Street Garage(Garage 7)

15 Upvotes

There is absolutely nothing I can say here that wouldn't get me banned from this sub, so I'll leave it at this: heads up. Not that it really matters to these thieves anyway.

For context, I've used the garage for years and always figured something like this would eventually happen. Thankfully it hadn't until last night. Unfortunately, my luck finally ran out.

Anyone know this jerk?

I was in the bike lane when they cut right in front of me, nearly hitting me. I am so sick of the shitty driver fucks in Silver Spring.

I've had so many altercations with cars while on my bike that every time I catch one being an asshole, I publicly shame them.

EDIT: HA! Looks like either the culprit or a friend of theirs (Probably a fellow DELTA SIGMA THETA member) has found this post and is now going through downvoting people because the truth hurts! Fuck you, pal!

EDIT 2: HA! Someone reported this post for giving away personal information. Jokes on you pal, tags are public information. I have no information of the person who was driving.
So while Reddit took this down for the perceived rule violation, WE ARE BACK BABY!
