    Now imagine apartment buildings taking up 100% of the island and that’s what you get under the current system.

        Zoning bylaw might require 1.5 parking spaces per dwelling unit. Three buildings would then need 450 spaces at roughly 128 sqft. each which would take up nearly an acre and a half.

        The three buildings on their own probably wouldn’t need even a single acre.

      Great, that means people have a place to live.

      not sure how you imagine it’s better for those people to just… not have a place to live?
