Thinking that you should be able to park next to your destination is not an urban mindset, it is a suburban one. Expecting any urban area to accommodate that mindset is ridiculous. That’s like asking urban buildings to, I don’t know, have massive parking podiums under every single tower... something most users here complain about ad nauseum.
We can’t have it both ways. Either we design spaces for cars or we design spaces for people.
