Goes into a fair bit of detail, this is a very promising urban development. A mixed use development within walking distance of an LRT station. Includes about 2,800 dwellings for an estimated 5,200 people and 750 jobs. Still including 3,200 parking spaces, which seems like a lot for only 2,800 homes. I should like to see the jobs and home parking largely shared. The plan is for a large parking garage in the back, which could be shared, and putting all the cars some distance from homes would result in a disincentive to drive. Also, quite low on park space, well below the required, which you know, could improve if some of the parking and roads were switched to parking.
Townhouses probably default to two spaces per dwelling so that will bring up the average.
