    It an unfortunate reality in car-centric towns, but this can be a valid concern for small businesses in downtown areas. Lack of parking can translate to customers simply not showing up.

      You know what helps people show up to businesses the most? Living nearby.

      The housing, mixed with pedestrian/cycle friendly planning, more than makes up for lost parking.
