A very interesting book. Never considered how important parking was before. It's true that at the end of every drive, there needs to be a parking spot. It raises some good point about how free or cheap parking can be more equitable in some ways, since while it might not be efficient, at least poorer people are in the same boat as richer people. Especially true when comes to accessing public areas such as beaches and parks that poorer people can't afford to live next to. The book does a good job of explaining how this free or cheap parking is an important contributor to high real estate prices.
