People keep saying having garage in front will cause too much street space to be taken by parking.

This is not true. We drove through del sur. Homes with garage in rear are the worst. The home owners never want to drive through the alley and park in the garage. The easiest is to park on the street in the front of the home and just go through the front door.

If the street is narrow (like in del sur), it is so hard to drive even at 15mph…
