like it or not, public transportation in Cleveland, though better than a lot of cities, still isn't all that convenient for an awful lot of people.

I know, I know, it's just ridiculous to me to cater to cars.
 
Be lucky I'm not Mayor!  Those parking lots would be ripped up knowning it could result in a lawsuit!

We need a much stronger public transit system before we can say that all visitors must use public transit and shouldn't be accommodated with on street parking.  Be realistic!  Very few people live along the HL, or even our rail system, which still drops one close to a mile short of Playhouse Square.  Are people coming from areas not serviced by transit not supposed to come Downtown, or are they supposed to park-n-ride in, adding a significant amount of time?

I am being realistic.  I chose to live in a location that is convenient to several transportation options. Others chose to live in locations that are car dependant.
 
Why aren't we asking those that live outside good mass transportation options to be more realistic with their transportation needs?
 
Making it easier for people to drive will never break the cycle of being car dependant.
 
This city and state needs a gigantic nicotine patch to break it's car crazed dependency!  :x   :x   :x   :x

let's try not to veer too far off track here... but umm MTS maybe you should be a tad more realistic :)  You honestly live in like one of 2 public transportation friendly areas in the city.  Most of our public transportation infastructure goes through a commercial rail trench and is surrounded by a whole lot of nothing.
