Reviews
For those who seek to manage and reform parking-and for urban planners, developers, transportation specialists, and policymakers-Parking and the City is an indispensable resource. -Public Square: A CNU Journal Don Shoup has done more to revolutionize the way we think about parking than anybody on the planet. His latest book tells the story of the impact his ideas are having on the subject. It is a must read for anybody who cares about the future of our cities. -Michael Dukakis, Distinguished Professor of Political Science, Northeastern University, USA
In his landmark book, The High Cost of Free Parking, Donald Shoup, FAICP, argued that reducing subsidies for parking would reduce air pollution and traffic congestion as well as improve land use... In a follow-up book, Parking and the City, Shoup and 46 other contributors examined the results of these reforms in practice and found important benefits for cities, the economy, and the environment. -American Planning Association In recognizing Shoup's decades-long work to improve transportation and land use by reforming cities' parking policies, the American Planning Association placed him among other well-known authors including Rachel Carson and Jane Jacobs. -UCLA Luskin School of Public Affairs Shoup's writing is as incisive and entertaining as ever. The imperative of parking reform-in a year of wildfires, floods, and transit systems choking on lack of revenue and riders-has never been clearer. Parking and the City is a perfect follow up to a classic work. -Planetizen For those who seek to manage and reform parking-and for urban planners, developers, transportation specialists, and policymakers-Parking and the City is an indispensable resource. -Public Square: A CNU Journal Don Shoup has done more to revolutionize the way we think about parking than anybody on the planet.
