In New York and elsewhere, the rules typically take the form of ratios [of parking spaces to retail and housing] that have been copied from one city to another, handed from one generation of engineers to the next without much study or skepticism.

That’s right by the Bedford-Northstrand G train stop in Bed-Stuy. That’s my old neighborhood. There is absolutely no need for those parking spaces there. Few people in that neighborhood own cars in the first place.
The only other buildings in the area that even have any parking spaces at all are the housing projects like Tompkins house and Marcy house, and, even then, they have very few of them.
