@Sam "Maybe $4.25/hr is still too darn cheap to make a difference!"

I agree. Compared to the rates in garages in some of those high-demand areas, $4.25/hour is still a bargain.

There's also Alex's comment that people (especially tourists) may not have any clue that cheaper, easier parking is available a few blocks away. While there may be a handful of drivers who are seriously price-and-aggravation-adverse, a few blocks is not too far for most people.*

*This is apparently not true in supermarket/mall parking lots where people will pass up parking spaces in order to drive around in an endless loop to park marginally closer to the entrance. I suspect these are the same people who use their car to check the mailbox at the end of the driveway.
