Self driving car : Impact on real estate

Editor's Notes

  • #12 This animated slide would be an interesting opener into Impact of self driving cars on parking.
  • #19 The advent of self-parking facilities will see prime parking lots and associated gas stations in urban cores reclaimed, with some reversal of the urban sprawl generated in earlier phases. This will affect not only development costs for new buildings, but also the value and usage of existing buildings with parking structures.

This will affect not only development costs for new buildings, but also the value and usage of existing buildings with parking structures.
