Slippery slope aside, I think reducing unnecessary consumerism would be beneficial for our most vuneral populations. There would be a lower barrier of entry into the economy and more resources would be available at a lower cost for people who cannot afford them

Convert the parking to housing and business. Build a nuclear reactor instead.

My one critique is that this ruins human habitat and encourages car dependency, where a lot of fossil fuels will go. And no not everyone will drive electric cars soon. People couldn't handle a mask mandate, they won't handle a ev mandate. The best thing to do is to infill this land with more housing and commercial space so people don't have to drive everywhere and just use nuclear power.
