seems to be a fancy word for an ill-defined "thing". How would you decide
whether something is a parklet or a "true" linear park (along the road),
urban green not worth of being called "parklet", just usual "sidewalk
furniture" (e.g. benches, trees, bushes, flowers, bicycle stands ...) ?
What does it mean a "parklet uses several parking spaces"? Is this only to
be used for spots where there once was a parking space before someone set
up a bench or planted a tree? What if the tree was already planned before
and/or there haven't ever been parking spaces at the street?

Of course, any (leisure) park will "occupy" a lot of parking spaces anyway
(i.e. place where someone could park his vehicle if it wasn't a park).

Cheers,
Martin
