This trend certainly has the potential to add some clean, safe, affordable housing in many of our larger cities.
Many former parking lots are turning into housing. (Some are also becoming parks, in cities including Dallas and Detroit; in San Diego, part of one parking lot has been restored to a salt marsh.) And as cities realize that they’ve built more parking than they need, dozens have eliminated parking requirements in new buildings. In California, any new construction near public transit no longer has to include parking. That means there’s room for more apartments, and rents can be lower.
