Parking in Waterloo Region

[cherrypark]

I was having a discussion with a friend about the amount of downtown land used for surface parking and the relative accessibility of lots for people driving to downtown, but found that there wasn't really much between city maps and otherwise that captured the minimal real impact that the cycling network is going to have on losing parking. The discussion sparked by the Luisa D'Amato article attempting to David v. Goliath the church adjacent parking on Duke and Big Bike Lane™ - everyone's favourite threat to driving, (free) parking, and cause of all congestion woes.

In case someone else would find it interesting to see/use, here was a rough crack at highlighting all the parking area in downtown. Plenty was missed in aggregate with the smaller lots and nooks too.
