Have we always wasted so much space for parking? I get that they serve an entire block, but they’re just cars - doing nothing 23h of the day.

Not to mention that the parking looks horribly designed. How will you get to your car, if it’s parked in the middle of the road in the middle of the block? You’ll first have to pass on the other side without cars paying much attention to you, and then also drive on the street, with the view being potentially blocked by a larger car (for you and the drivers on the street)
