that statistic, unlike some of the others, isn't a space comparison between parking spots and apartment square footage. it is instead a legal requirement.
if somebody wants to build a building with 25 2-bedroom apartments, they have to also ensure 50 new parking spaces get built.
- StavrosK 7y agoThat's what's crazy. It's assuming everyone has two cars and none of them are ever in the street.
- ajmurmann 7y ago> none of them are ever in the street. I think that's the goal. Others who already love in the area otherwise would protest the construction because their precious street parking would have more competition. We should just take all the candy away from the kids and ban most street parking like in Japan. But the US loves their cars do that's never gonna happen.
- StavrosK 7y agoSorry, I meant "on the street", as in "being driven".
- lazyjones 7y ago> That's what's crazy. It's assuming everyone has two cars and none of them are ever in the street. Erm, no. It assumes that at some point the 2 bedrooms will actually be occupied, hence 3+ people will live in the apartment. 2 cars for 3 people isn't "crazy"...
