Looks like the loss of parking was more than made up for.

Lots of parking for baseball.

It looks like it extends down to the field house area. That area has always been used for premium parking anyway.

Looking at the pic, there's paved parking now by the PIKE house. Also the area of Memorial Gym provides plenty of parking. We should be set, just need fans and folks in the community to show up.

Yea, but now I have to walk up hill both ways and cross a six-lane highway to go to the Joe.

It'll be a shorter and easier walk for me than parking in the previous Intramural Field.

Single-family automobiles are the most flexible way to move people, but also the least efficient and least safe. So when infrastructure prioritizes single-family automobiles above all else, everything works less efficiently and with greater risk of injury for everyone.

Driving a car is fexible and for the most part seems to be the most time effiicent for me.

Only in urban settings -

I rural settings where you have more ticks and cows than people - it's the cheapest and most efficient form of transportation...

That's because automobile infrastructure is largely free for you to use. Its real life-cycle costs are obscured by public subsidies (of which gasoline taxes are a drop in the bucket.)

If you had to pay a toll every time you left your driveway -- let's say 10 cents per mile for a family vehicle, in addition to the per gallon gas tax you already pay -- would you still find it efficient?

In terms of infrastructure and resource allocation, rural settings are the least efficient way to structure a community.

Saying that private automobiles are the most efficient way to get around in the least efficient context is like winning the tallest midget contest.
