why on god's green earth do people think no parking signs are advisory?

Owning a car isn't magic. It doesn't give you the right to park wherever you want. And if you park in a tow zone at a private business, anywhere in the country I've lived, you can expect that business to have you towed ASAP.

the entitlement is just nuts

yeah, I thought they actually increased the reveal from roof in snowbelt? Can't remember offhand.

I would bet you were right on historic ex-CAR permission, but I bet you could get boral through as the reveals and shadow lines are better.

Current cypress sucks as much as hardie

It actually can rot annoyingly enough. It's not rot but it's functionally equivalent. Not a big issue in Richmond generally but don't let snow accumulate against it

What happens is the cardboard inside the concrete gets wet and swells and everything blows up

but our dense neighborhoods just aren't dense. They are suburban by most cities lights. I like cities, so I want the density to increase. We can increase Richmond's density by 7x before we get to London, which isn't all that dense a city in most neighborhoods.
