Ridgewood NJ, Tony Loving made some interesting comments in the It takes a Ridgewood Village Facebook group, “During an April 22nd Village Council discussion about allocating spaces in the new Hudson Street parking garage, not a single Council member mentioned the potential long term impact COVID-19 may have on the demand for parking spaces throughout the Village’s Central Business District and at the train station. Whether we like to admit it or not, demand for parking spaces in Ridgewood may never be anything like it was pre-pandemic. Many Village residents may be working from home permanently, or commuting to their NYC offices very infrequently. Demand for parking by shoppers and diners, particularly diners, may never reach pre-pandemic levels. Village Council members need to immediately revisit their plan for the allocation of parking spaces, and make revisions based upon current events. Allocation proposals developed in the garage’s pre-construction phase should be thrown out of the window at this point in time. Unfortunately, when the dust settles, there may be an excess number of parking spaces. If that’s the case, consideration should be given to re-purposing one or more surface parking lots.”
