Real world example. Nanaimo recently redeveloped its main downtown shopping street. They increased the sidewalk area but still dedicate 64% to driving and parking. Despite the fact that there are numerous large multi-story parkades within walking distance.

Plenty to choose from:

Maybe it's time to move back to the city. I left in October 2021 to save on rent but rates have come down a lot since the peak. This is my own analysis. Each point is based on ten listings on craigslist which meet my requirements in terms of location and quality.

Coincidence maybe but the next post in my feed after yours was this:

This information from Kamala Harris is astonishing. I would have assumed there were numerous, long, heated internal discussions between the president and numerous party figures about whether he should resign. Is this saying it was left to him? www.bbc.com/news/article...

Before people get upset, here is a photo of one of the numerous parkades within a block of Commercial St. This was taken at 6pm on a Wednesday.
