103 Small Parking Lots

May be part of Shopping Street (32), House Cluster (37), Work Community (41), Nine Percent Parking (22), Shielded Parking (97).

Conflict

Vast parking lots wreck the land for people.

Resolution

Make parking lots small, serving no more than five to seven cars, each lot surrounded by garden walls, hedges, fences, slopes, and trees, so that from outside the cars are almost invisible. Space these small lots so that they are at least 100 feet apart.

May contain Circulation Realms (98), Positive Outdoor Space (106), Tree Places (171), Garden Wall (173).
