Around the corner from Davis, most of the day, along Mass Ave from Day street all the way down to ATA Cycles, past Porter, are a smattering of groups taking over parking spaces and turning them into parks, with more or less rates of success. :-) There is rumored to be Blues Dancing in front of the Porter Square Galaria (where the Lesley Bookstore, City Sports, and all the Japanese fast food places are) in the evening. The Hoop Troop/SCUL folks are in front of Bob Slate, at the corner of Beech Street.

By the way, I *do* think that too much space has been devoted to cars in this country. But only in places built in the last 60 years.

The problem is suburban office parks, huge parking lots at Home Depot, and giant parking garages in Kendall Square, not parallel parking spots in walkable neighborhoods.
