Paved Paradise: How Parking Explains the World is a nonfiction work of urban criticism and journalism by Henry Grabar. It examines how parking requirements, parking supply, and parking policy have shaped American cities far beyond the curbside or the garage. Drawing on history, planning, politics, and reporting, the book argues that the demand to store cars has influenced housing costs, land use, transit, neighborhood form, and the quality of public space. Rather than treating parking as a minor technical issue, Grabar presents it as a central force in modern development decisions. The book is especially concerned with how rules requiring abundant parking can make homes more expensive, streets less livable, and cities more spread out. It also shows that parking is often treated as an unquestioned necessity even when it consumes land and resources that could support more useful civic purposes. The result is a clear-eyed, accessible investigation into an everyday system with unusually large urban consequences.
