    Or, rather than giving out free taxpayer funded subsidized parking, they could… Not drive there.

    We already have parking mandates in most cities. It’s why all of America looks the same, flat spread out big box suburban nowheres. Parking mandates have been proven not to work and the methodology behind them at best is complete guesswork.

    The solution is for people to use options other than driving. From your google maps link I was able to find:

    I count roughly 5 bus lines and the N/W subway line, all within walking distance. They chose to drive to a place that had many other options to get there, and they chose here to be a dick. The problem was “not enough parking”, the problem was they decided to drive anyway.
