Charles St GRT terminal redevelopment

[danbrotherston]

First of all, there's tons of parking, this doesn't enable anyone new to come downtown. If you aren't coming downtown because of a false belief there is no parking, this won't change that.

Second of all, I said exactly why in my post...because people will get used to parking here, then they will get angry when it gets taken away. Please, if you don't believe people will complain when this is closed, I have a bridge to sell you.

Why would one be concerned that people might complain?  Somebody is always complaining about something.  It usually makes no difference, and when it does, it probably should.

*blinks*...

You serious? You don't think politicians pander to complaining nimby and anti-bike lane crowds by cancelling or scaling back developments and bike lanes (or sidewalks, or whatever) that should have gone through?

Please, lets have a serious discussion here.
