If Uptown needs more parking closer to the specific part of Uptown where people want to go, then it has to be further north, and I’m at a loss as to where exactly unless it’s located on the existing lot north of The Shops. Very anecdotally, the parking lot behind LCBO seems to very infrequently be anywhere near full- the lot north of The Shops seems to be full or close to it more often, but not as a rule.
Have there been studies done of parking Uptown that identified a need for more parking? Do we know anything about what kinds of demand management (charging something) would alleviate that need?
Have you been there recently? Since the excavation for the new building on Willis Way began, it is frequently jammed to capacity. Also since one side of the parking lot was essentially sawed off with no redesign, it is a huge hassle to get in and out of.
