You are falling prey to the fundamental attribution error. It has nothing to do with "cars should be banned". If my objective is "maximize housing" then step one is too evaluate the space and find areas where housing does not exist in quantity. Those are places like parking lots, parks, commerical only buildings, single family homes, hospitals, schools, etc. To increase supply, we must tear down existing sites. Parking lots have the most limited positive upsides. Where would you build a new, 1000 unit apartment building downtown?
