CONTENT AND SUPPORT
Actual Building Code
Construction costs
• Average cost of building a parking space is $500 USD per m2
• Average cost per space $13,500 USD
• 30-40% of real estate investment
False mitigation strategy
MARKET ESTIMATE: 1.2 m2 of new office buildings within the next 3 years

CUMMULATIVE BUILT SURFACES
Developers providing “exactly” the requirement
It’s illegal to build (houses, anything) for a car-free life
Requirement is higher than parking demand (market)
Case study: Doctores>> Redevelopment project
10 simulation scenarios compared:
• Base: condiciones actuales de tránsito vehicular en la zona
• 5,000 cajones: 3 usage levels (low, mid, high)
• 10,000 cajones: 3 usage levels (low, mid, high)
