PLANNING GUIDELINES

PARKING SYSTEM

The need for parking was one of the primary factors leading to the development of the shopping center
concept.

In suburban areas where almost all the trade comes by automobile, a ratio of between 5 and 6 car
spaces per 1,000 sq ft of leasable store area is mandatory.

In the central business district, where mass transportation and walk-in trade can be counted on for a
substantial part of the clientele, the ratio can go down to as low as 2 .5 to 3 cars per 1,000 sq ft.

In the matter of parking layout, car stalls can be set at angles (say, 70'j to the lanes, which then requires
one-way traffic, or stalls can be at 90' to the lanes, permitting two-way traffic.

LIFTS

Quality Service or Acceptable Interval

20 to 25 seconds Excellent
30 to 35 seconds Good
34 to 40 seconds Fair
45 seconds Poor
Over 45 seconds Unsatisfactory
NOTE— For residential buildings longer intervals should be permissible.
