Reply to comment by RowanRally in Living downtown - how do you manage parking? by Argvir

Don’t get me wrong, I like going downtown and I’m not trying to bag on downtown, it just seems like there are better options that won’t cost an arm and a leg outside of downtown, that also have plenty of parking. Which seems important for the OP, it’s fine that you like it there but what the reason they want to live there? Maybe there’s a better option.

My building has a garage right across the street. Parking is a non-issue.

Some people may want to live in a historic condo surrounded by the beautiful city scape, you know? Cost doesn’t matter to everyone in the same way; I prioritized the environment over the absolute dollar amount.

You’re making my point for me, just because downtown is for you doesn’t mean it’s best for the OP, that’s why I asked.

OP is already interested in living in the Downtown so I’m not clear on the question. S/he didn’t come here to ask for the best neighborhood but to figure out parking. I’m unclear on why you’d ask (unless you were curious, I suppose).
