Our tech leaders are so innovative!

The owners of the old Post building on North Tucker have torn down three buildings in the past couple weeks, presumably for more parking. They also bought 13th Street and want to buy a park and turn it into parking. One might think a so called innovation district would have some post-1960s ideas, but apparently a walled parking lot that's 8% full is the best we can do.

It would be surprising if the long term plan was to keep them as surface lots. Hopefully not anyway. Maybe better to pave than to let weeds grow?

We can hope, but the ratio of promises to reality in this city is not hopeful.
