I'm getting a parking spot!!! *does happy dance*
Now I'm sure some of you are wondering why I need a parking spot when I don't have a car to park!
When I moved into this building there were 8 visitor parking spots. Two years ago after they did the building renovations, they removed 4 of the visitor parking spots in favour of more resident spots. Last year they removed the rest.
Which now means that anyone who wants to visit has to try and find a spot on the street, which isn't easy because it's a short street that feeds a community centre / park, our building which has 82 apartments, plus another apartment building; not to mention people who park on the street because it's free, and then either walk or bus to the downtown area to go to work. This often means that visitors have to park a few blocks away. Not so fun in the winter months.
My brother hasn't been able to come visit me for a long time because he has severe respiratory problems and can't walk very far, so now that I have a parking spot, he can come visit me again!!
An extra $40 added to my rent, but I think it's worth it.
