A Crusade For Parking In Richmond
A columnist argues for keeping diagonal street parking despite the downtown's plans for a two-way street.
"That the city plans to get rid of the diagonal parking goes against a national trend of putting diagonal parking back on city streets and turning four-lane streets into two-lane streets by adding parallel parking. The trend has been identified by Patrick Siegman, a town planner in Palo Alto, Calif., and a principal of the firm Siegman & Associates. Siegman is putting together a study of parallel and diagonal parking with the goal of publishing a peer-reviewed paper."
