People have been saying that for decades, and when they continue to do that, it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. It's time to stop repeating the same old tired cliches and think differently. In actuality, it's never been easier for someone to go without a car in Phoenix -- not everywhere, but certainly across the street from Central Station when the combined effect of light rail, bus, rideshare, bike lanes, and scooters is considered. Not having a car won't work for 100% of tenants -- probably not even for 50%, but it will for some, and those tenants shouldn't pay for parking they don't use -- especially in a building that is focused on affordability.
