Lawrence Attempts To Solve Parking Problem
Downtown Lawrence and the KU campus have many things ir common. One is their parking problem.
Students have become well aware of the shortage of parking facilities on the hill, but not all are equally aware of the existing problem downtown.
Only 3 Parking Lots
Each year the parking problem grows steadily worse, and according to E. R. Zook, Chamber of Commerce secretary, 500 more automobiles have been registered this year than last year at the same time.
Lawrence proper has only three downtown parking lots which do not accommodate even the bulk of parked cars.
Mr. Zook said that one of the main difficulties was in keeping merchants and employees from parking in the shopping area. He said to remedy this situation the city was contemplating building off-street parking areas for employers and employees as far west as Kentucky St.
Mr. Zook cited the new arcade, which will be built where the Patee Theater now stands, as one of the most important projects of the Off Street Parking and Traffic Control Committee.
Will Tear Down Houses
Will Fear
The arcade will cut through to the parking lot immediately behind it which is being enlarged to park approximately 300 cars. It will extend as far as the Dr. Pepper Bottling Co. The city will tear down four houses in this area to extend the lot. "If this space is still inadequate, a two story building may be built," said James L. Schubert, president of the Merchant's Association.
Mr. Zook pointed out Lawrence must face the same problems of any town such as people who come to town, park their cars, and sit in them watching the people. He also feels that it is better to have enough parking places to accommodate "peak" traffic such as during the Christmas season, even

though this means that there will often be many places left vacant during less busy days.
"Streets are made to carry traffic." Mr. Zook said, not to park cars. Someday there will probably be only parallel parking on Massachusetts St."
