Cool video, know what day this was taken? I might find my car from there.

And dayum, even with the large space theres almost no spot to park if you come late.

[SirAlain]

Very nice! 5 stars!

The cars look like bugs & the people look like ants.

*shudder*

this was taken on the morning of tue. may 20, 2008..... battery died before lot was totally full.... notice people prefer to face out and walk more rather then reverse in and park closer.... some of those handicap spot people arent even handicap



i couldnt imagine parking at the end..... thats a good 2 football fields of walking distance....

Wow the guy at 30 seconds in the truck/van is a horrible parker! Someone tried to park beside him but couldn't fit!

[KorruptioN]

Solid vid. I would suggest putting in the fact that you started rolling at around 7am.

Real good video but a time stamp would be nice.

Cool vid, thanks. The people look like ants in a colony.

Why is no one parking in the spaces in the lower left? Are they handicap or reserved?

I think they are.

LOL. I noticed that too. He was totally crooked. The dark colored car that tried to fit beside him and then left probably left him a nice mark down the side of his vehicle for the trouble.

I also noticed a lot of people pull back/forth into the spot 3, 4, or even 5 times. Are drivers truely that bad???

Good to see such big park/ride lots. Edmonton is building LRT extensions with NO park and ride at the new sites, rediculous lack of planning.

I noticed that too. He took up two slots and one guy who tried to park next to him had to back out because it was such a tight fit.

I know that the spots at Warden station in Toronto are extremely thin compared to regular spots at a shopping centre. Perhaps Finch is the same way.

Chances are if your taking TTC you are used to walking
