      Have just read about the new apartment complex that is being built with 20 units, 20 bike racks and absolutely no car parking spaces.  And car parking permits will not be available for any of the residents.

      Though the positive would be that there would not be a problem with people using the visitors car spots nor people using other peoples spots, I don't see how this would be of any benefit.

      Though I applaud the inclusion of bike racks, getting around on pushbikes is not for everyone.  It discriminates against us older folks.  And how does one invite friends around for the odd dinner!  Even if they did want to come by bike and ride home at 1am there is only 20 bike spots anyway.  Where would they park their bikes? 

      I travel all around Sydney to see family and friends and most of the time use a car for this (though I do take public transport where possible).  But this is a big city.  I definitely would not consider living in a complex that did not offer resident or visitor parking (nor parking permits).  And if anyone I know does buy into that complex – don't ask me over for dinner.
