@roodave But the article says it will *increase* the cost of housing and decrease affordability (allegedly because dwellings with parking will become more expensive).
Nevermind that people without cars currently have to pay for a parking space 🧐

It seems obvious when you think about it, but I never realized that trees all contain the images of their past selves. This, by Giuseppe Penone, carefully planing away the years of growth, shows the 40-years-before self hidden within an old cedar. #AmongtheTrees @haywardgallery

💯 "Vancouver will move forward with a plan to install protected bike lanes...and remove nearly 400 parking spaces, following a near-consensus from the city council that pedestrian and cyclist safety was more important than maintaining convenient parking." https://t.co/yu8e8HSJqb

@Tweetermeyer Only round trip car sharing has been demonstrated to make a dent in private car ownership. Amazed how VCs still don’t throw money at it to scale. Don’t confuse this with one-way which has very different unit economics.
