Also related to this topic, is the likelihood of autonomous vehicles freeing up enormous amounts of urban real estate that is currently dedicated to parking space. That could dwarf even the effect of all this empty commercial real estate
yes, this is going to be a huge trend, probably even more so in suburban places where big box retailers have thousands of parking spots.
