Notas do Editor
- Because… On-Street or Off-Street, that space has value.Parking is Real Estate, But we Subsidize it, Or Give it Away, Or Undervalue It.But what if we let the market determine the cost, look what happens:It becomes some of the Most Valuable Real Estate In Town, like here in Back Bay.
