Plenty of vacancies in strip malls too. So what?
Fares should be raised on the T. That way, vehicles wouldn't be overcrowded, and you could always get a seat. The market should decide the best fare. More demand, like at rush hour, higher prices.

Chicago's rate is set and owned by Morgan Stanley for the next 99 years, I believe without any restrictions on pricing. While set to something like "market rate" I'm not sure how I feel about the private sector taking this over.
Sorry if any of the above facts are wrong.
I'd like to lower prices weekends and evenings, but if I can't, so be it--its effect on weekdays is both good as fair, good as congestion-pricing, and clearly revenue positive for the city even if patronage dropped off at off-peak times.
For the areas with market meter rates, how do they compare with Boston in terms of garage rates and availability?
Park in front of someone's driveway? $25.
So, according to this forum's members, parking is too cheap but newspaper pay walls are too expensive.
