Not everything downtown is high rises and fancy shops. Over around East Avenue, near IH35, there are houses and this shop which is Austin Carriage Repair or some such (perhaps they work on the horse-drawn carriages you see around town). They don't want people parking there I don't think! And yes, this was one of the possibilities for 'NO' theme day on July 1.

I Think They Don't Want You to Park

If you got up one morning and found your driveway blocked by someone who is not there to visit you but someone a block or two away how would you feel? You can't use the property you bought or leased because some free loader is too cheap to pay $5 to park in the lot across the street has blocked you from being able to go to work that day! How do you deal with the lost income so the trespasser could save $5? How many times does it happen before you have to be so bold as to make it for sure that someone needs access to their property!
ReplyDeleteI don't think I was siding with the people parking there, just amused and dismayed at the effort the property owner had to put out to try to stop it. One time my husband found a shelter he'd built on his property full of cars hoping to dodge a storm. We had to have towing signs (approved by the City) and hire a service to keep people at bay. Totally sympathize with this guy.
