The premise of The High Cost of Free #Parking, Shoup’s 800-page magnum opus, is as simple as it is provocative: car parking is nearly always too cheap.

Estimates vary, but each additional parking space adds as much as $20,000, $50,000, or $80,000 to the cost of a project, based on whether it involves a surface lot, above-ground garage, or below-ground garage, respectively.
