I've wondered what would happen if a city was built with a mandate that there must be a parking garage on every block, or every X blocks. You could even make them a public utility, an extension of the public road network.
- true_religion 10y agoThey do have mandates like that. In the D.C. area, every new multi-story apartment building must have at 1.5 car spaces for every apartment apartment larger than a small studio.
- PhasmaFelis 10y agoSo what's the parking like in DC? In any case, that doesn't quite cover what I was thinking of. I'm curious what would happen if there was a major city with enough parking for everyone to find a space within a block of their destination, whether that's home, work, shopping, or whatever.
