Cincinnati parking

One permit is for a lot on Main Street in Over-the-Rhine that previously held the historic Davis Furniture building. The other is for a vacant parcel at 112 W. Court St, between Elm and Race.

No new surface parking lots could be built Downtown under an ordinance proposed by Council Member Mark Jeffreys. He says surface lots are poor utilization of land and Downtown already has plenty of parking.

Parking on many city streets is prohibited from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. and from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. so the extra lane can be used to reduce rush hour traffic congestion. Four council members say eliminating that restriction is a low-cost way to improve pedestrian safety because parked cars are a barrier between traffic and pedestrians.
