That's a great point to bring up. I usually only think about the urban parking space issue in the context of ride-share services, but you're right about it being regulated differently for different types of real estate.

I forget who did the cost analysis of city parking, but just requiring street-side parking spaces is unfathomably costly. The point isn't that "it's their property...". The point is that urban space is very limited and people should be able to choose whether or not they want to pay for parking spaces, which are very expensive.
