The city just built a parking garage 2 blocks south at Truman College that could be used for concerts at night. As mentioned there is also an empty parking garage 3 blocks north where Aon used to be. I don't think there is much need for more parking. I don't think the demand is that high anyway, because whenever I go to the Green Mill I can always find a meter spot on broadway within 2 blocks of Lawrence and Broadway.

There had been plans to build a tower at the parking lot across from the Aragon before the crash. I think that should be used for TOD if anything should be built there, not a huge parking deck.

Hell there aren't any giant parking garages at Wrigley either, and people from the burbs still manage to get to the game ok. Both places benefit from having a redline stop practically next door.
