Notes:
"The characteristics of automobile parkers, cited in the previous chapter, indicate the necessity for distributing parking facilities throughout the downtown districts. It is more desirable to have a large number of small facilities than a few large ones. In this way, the facilities can be spread throughout the area of demand so that they will be convenient to major streets and routes as well as parking generators. THis reduces the walking distances and spreads the traffic loads--of particular advantage during peak hours. A typical distribution of parking areas is shown in Figure 19 taken from a recent study in Anaheim, California." (p. 84)
