PARKINGI N T H E F U T U R E

The very concept of parking will change dramaticallywhen your car can circle the block without you, or take

itself to be washed and pick up your groceries whileyou enjoy your dinner, freeing up miles of prime realestate for anything from apartments and shops topublic parks and green spaces. Parking spaces that

remain will likely be automatically reserved in advanceonce the car knows its destination.

can be safely raised.
