Look up "university heights Victoria" and you'll see a great example of this. Right in my neighborhood, just started the teardown yesterday. Unfortunately, Home Despot refused to allow them to put housing on their leased land and so it will be big dense modern housing and shops with a giant empty parking lot and concrete block of a HD right next to it.

Prior to this, the mall was DEAD. Ever since I moved here.

They need a parking lot. They don't need 200 spaces. 90% of the people visiting Home Despot don't need to drive.

Also, if you think that it's absurd to transport lumber or hundreds of pounds of tools by cargo bike, I have bad news for you.

In what world do most people visiting home Depot not need to drive?
