I still drive Riverwood sometimes despite the cushions. But the % share has gone towards Gallatin since they were installed.

Eliminating Minimum Parking Requirements in the UZO

Appreciate the offer. Going to keep this Bluesky inquiry general as sort of a brainstorming exercise for myself. Thanks!
