This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

At least in Finland apartment buildings have "parking" for bikes in the sense that there's bike racks in front of staircases and usually a storage room specifically for bikes. "No need for parking" seems incorrect, even though it takes much, much less space than cars

Pretty much no one parks their bikes inside in the Nerherlands, I'm guessing that's a climate thing. It takes like half a square meter outside.

The indoors bike storage room is for winter (and other longer term) storage so you don't have to leave them out in the elements and don't have to bring them inside the apartment either. It can be handy.

It does add up in bigger apartment buildings. Nothing compared to cars but if you don't factor it in during construction it can be annoying as shit.
