It's always a game. The Uptown parkade was intended to provide parking for people working in the Uptown area. However, with a wide selection of free parking, many workers chose to forego the cost of a parking pass and instead dodge the parking enforcement officers.
The Uptown core is always going to have a need for a certain degree of parking. Has anyone seen general figures for how much parking (paid/free; covered/outdoor etc) is ideal for a downtown area? For instance, if even half of a 100-person workplace's staff walk/bike/transit, that still means that there would be a need for 50 parking spots somewhere nearby.
