still one has to wonder where these 700 cars will go....its not like they will suddenly disappear, especially if they are daily commuters.
Most will do as you say (a few will go to Downsview instead, a few will drive downtown, and a few will take the bus). They'll be unhappy for a year then the Spadina extension opens with plenty of new parking opportunities. The idea was right but the timing sucks; they should have closed this lot 1 week after Spadina line opening (1 week transition period).
My preferred mechanism would be for TTC to crank up the rates (cap at 50% of a downtown Green P rate) on lots they no longer want until customers stop using them.
