They also created one of those new "traffic calming" style parking lots, which you can see in the pic, where they purposely make no close parking (except handicap), so if it's already busy you're typically pretty far away from the entrance.

In the summer it's fine, and ultimately you're going to a fitness facility so whining about walking from parking is silly I admit, except it's a bitch in the winter when it's -20 and you're hauling ass from the far end of the lot, while stumbling over the beautiful (see: useless) green space they built out front.
