Basically once the show outpaced the books it went to shit.

If you didn't like the first season, maybe just jump in at season two for your next watch?

No dramas, I was being cheeky. I've also read the books. I was pleasantly surprised with how well the show portrayed the books (merging of some characters, but expected). Until a point...

If parking sell/rents for more than housing, you should be building parking garages instead of condos. Peter you aren't maximising potential of the land.

Allowing storage in parking stalls is inefficient. They should be leased to people who want to pay. Massive lanes between storage lockers is inefficient space usage. Task cabinets blocking sight lines is a safety issue. Just use strife lockers.

Also it would be more cost effective to rent finished area for storage instead of parking spaces, since the later rents for more.

It's not something to agree or disagree with, traffic evaporation exists and cities which remove, charge for our increase charges on parking see reduced traffic volumes.

parking again is cheap relative to the finished area per square foot

Rough estimates are $90 / sq foot for parking, $160 / sq foot for finished construction.

But guess which one sells and rents for more?

For no parking? Short term they do stupid shit (like a large event). Long term they just get rid of cars.

Ground and semi-recessed also makes a fantastic space for retail, which makes more money than parking. Digging subterranean JUST to add parking only adds costs, you don't have to keep digging (or if you do, you can solid fill instead of putting in parking garages).
