Ubers are rarely parked when on-duty and in a city this doesn't seem to be an issue.
> considering how bursty transportation usage is
I would like to introduce you to the Bay Area and LA freeways, where there is a lull from approx. 11am-2pm, and the roads are fairly packed until 8pm. In large metros the traffic is less bursty than you think.
> in exchange we get massive parking structures tying up a lot of space
We're already doing automated stacked parking in some high-density areas (I've personally seen it in Berkeley and NYC). It could become the norm: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/7e/Multi-level_stack_parking_NYC_07_2010_9583.JPG https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/7e/Multi-le...
