Not a ghost bike, just a white bike. There are more bike racks on the street, and all had bikes locked to them, plus people had locked bikes to the fence by the store (one had left when I took this photo)

This store’s parking lot is completely empty, but the bike rack is full. Down with parking car minimums!

@mayorwu.boston.gov things we can do
1: Eliminate parking requirements
2: Ban parking garages
3: Remove height restrictions
4: Ban single family zoning (any existing are grandfathered for retrofit) but do not allow ppl to tear down and rebuild single family

Hell yes! I'd love to see more communities in Massachusetts follow this lead.

New Boston hidden gem unlocked!

Spectacle Island is a restful oasis just a 30 min ferry ride from downtown! Not sure how it took me so long to finally check it out.
