Reply to comment by run_eat_rep3at in Can we lose that "Outside Dining" that takes up all the parking area across the district?! by eablacksmith

Remove all the parking up and down 14th St. NW and turn it into this. The double parking by Ubers/taxis/Lyfts/everyone just waiting is unacceptable.

Agreed.

In my fantasy world we remove all the parking meters on busy commercial corridors and replace them with a visible overhead red/green light (like in those parking garages where it tells you where a space is open) with a button. The button turns red to green for 10 minutes, just enough time for a rideshare driver to pick up their passenger or food delivery driver to pick up their order.

Every block gets a tow truck patrol, tow truck sees a red light, your car is gone.

So many restaurants are closing so it would be a waste
