Downtown to Jane Jacobs: Drop Dead. The Daily News reports that the number one concern of downtown residents is a lack of on-street parking. It is true that a disproportionate number of spaces are allocated to city employees (giving them untaxed, uncalculated benefit that is worth $6,000 a year in some areas) relative to other neighborhoods. [Insert boilerplate rant about the foolishness of owning a car in Manhattan]. Some people even consider it a luxury that they can live car free. Anyway, note to downtown residents: I hear there's plenty of parking in Westchester County. Give it a look see.
