[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One of the strategies of New Urbanism is getting exemptions from requirements that streets be as wide as they typically are in new developments. Slowing traffic is one of that reasons. And to repeat: The cars you see parked on the streets do not necessarily belong to the residents, but to people visiting Clarendon/Courthouse. One indication of that is the fact that the streets further from Wilson have a lot more available parking. Do you think that's because the homeowners have only one car or have managed to fit two cars into the typical single-car garage?[/quote] It doesn't matter. It doesn't feel like a New Urbanist design; it feels like an area where people tried to have their cake and eat it, too, and spoiled the recipe in the process. [/quote]
