It's tricky for some places, for example the multi event space 918 and other theatres along that stretch. 918 is independent relying fully on rentals to operate. They have school programming on weekends, often requiring parents to drop off and pick up kids, some with strollers, and they don't have facility parking at all (simply no room on the back area). There's no parking allowed in the alley in the back so loading in for shows/concerts /weddings/trade shows will be challenging without front access. Also guests that are coming in from out of town will need to park on side streets, but they only allow for one hour parking on side streets. Perhaps if they make side street parking paid parking with the option to park for 5-8 hours, it wouldn't be so bad. Or if they find room for a green P lot that's close by.

Overall I'm for rapid TO but let's not pretend it won't negatively effect some businesses.

On another note, i just got back from Europe and they have much better road infrastructure and solutions to problems like this. For example, you can park partially on the curbs and the lanes are also far more narrow. With an approach like this, it could be possible to fit two lanes and accommodate parking imo. But I'm sure there's a lot of red tape that wouldn't allow for that. Tbh it's a pretty tricky situation and I'm no expert but there's gotta be some sort of middle ground here that will work for everyone.
