The bank we share a building with owns this building... or what used to be a building.
Several years ago it caught fire and the inside was gutted. It’s sat empty for a couple years, with the exterior completely intact. Apparently they decided that instead of renovating it, or selling it, they would just knock it down.
So now, it’s gonna be another parking lot that nobody will use. Fucking perfect.
Fuck banks, eat the rich, burn down an Applebee’s. This shit is just so stupid.

I spent much of my childhood at my grandmother’s house, near the Indianapolis airport. Many fond memories of their property, the huge tulip tree in the back yard, the garage with all sorts of old farm equipment and fun things like now-illegal firecrackers.
When I was a young adult, the airport gave up on trying to meet the FAA’s requirements for sound pollution and instead bought out their neighborhood. Someone bulldozed all the homes and trees and turned it into a long-term parking lot for the airport.
Paved paradise and put up a parking lot.
Not many years later they built a new terminal at the far end of the airport, and now the parking lot that destroyed that tree and that house and that neighborhood is abandoned.

Surface parking is so poisonous to cities. Really should be taxed to encourage concentrating the parking in garages or something.

Wichita doesn’t need any more surface parking, there’s no shortage already. At this point the urban fabric is getting pretty threadbare.

You’d need to have pretty extreme claustrophobia for parking garages to be a problem? I mean they are more spacious than most buildings.

In a newer open-air, above ground lot I’d agree.
Being four levels deep in a very tight, hot, NYC parking garage is another story.

devil’s advocate - is it really that easy to renovate a building that’s had a fire?

No, it probably needed to be torn down. I read it as that turning it into surface parking was about the worst thing they could have done with it..

NYC is a bit of special case. There a reason why most of those garages are valet only...

Often urban property owners will put parking lots on property to generate some income until a buyer interested in building buys the parcel from them (a t the right price, of course) . It can become something else . . . in 15-20 years, maybe.
This is what we'll show whenever you publish anything on Kinja:

SF won’t let them tear down old buildings anymore, an old historic building was pretty much gutted and it looked like they built a modern frame inside it. I think it will be connected to a hotel next door and it will be residences of that hotel, the Park Central I think.

I highly doubt that the bank just decided not to sell an asset.
More likely nobody wanted to buy the deathtrap lawsuit bait.
