I think the city needs to learn to be a little flexible in special circumstances. Yes, it goes against their anti-parking agenda (which I'm not a huge fan of in the first place), but chances are this project could be a catalyst for improving that entire block.

Instead it will probably remain another craptastic block filled with pawn shops for another decade or two, and then someone will come along who just wants to bulldoze the whole block and we lose some more heritage buildings. Yay.
