Davisville, Aug. 10, 2026: Changes coming downtown, especially if you drive

People who drive downtown will see some changes starting in September. The immediate change is the switch to paid parking in three central parking lots with about 330 spaces. The change that will take awhile to show up is the impact of approximately 340 new apartments planned along G Street, mostly without space for parking (the photo shows the demolition in progress on Aug. 5 of a former Davis Ace building, where some of the new apartments will be built). If the renters don’t bring cars, then this change should add more life to downtown without amping up the competition for a place to park. If.

Today on Davisville we talk about these changes with Brett Lee, executive director of the Davis Downtown Business Association (and a former mayor), and Trish Price, vice president of Bike Davis. As the discussion shows, these changes contain more nuance than might appear at first glance.
