Hear it loud folks, cars are more important than people. Sure it's only a few blocks away from the Q line, but that doesn't matter. Where will people have cars?
There has to be a way to incentivize tenants to forego cars for a project like this to succeed. I kind of understand the 1:1 ratio thing, because while I agree it's ridiculous to cut housing units for parking spaces, the reality is that if there aren't enough onsite parking sports for a given MDU, you'll just have people clogging up city streets with overflow parking. Perhaps billing the building as carless or something and charging a premium for a parking spot to disincentivize car ownership?
You see this in major cities here in CA like LA or SF, where much housing was built and zoned before the surge in personal car ownership. Street parking is a nightmare, and neighborhoods are filled to the brim with people plopping their cars wherever they can. It has to be coordinated effort between residents and cities to help alleviate the situation. Even neighborhood vertical parking structures would help.
Okay so hear me out, public, neighborhood car parks but also a network of car free streets.
Like my neighborhood is surrounded by arterials, what if you had a car park that was free like within 5 blocks. Is it a waste of space that could be used for housing? Yes. But it also moves cars to the periphery and opens up like 25 blocks to be car free neighborhood streets where people can walk, children can play and we have less noise pollution and can easily build community.
We can designate areas of on street parking for disabled people and allow services into the neighborhood but we could limit the entrances and have more clutter and places to sit and vibe instead of having to maintain vigilance.
I honestly believe that's absolutely the direction we should start moving in. It's just going to be a tough sell on divorcing people from there cars, and hopefully an "if you build it they will come" approach works out.
