People will be converting hundreds of square feet of unused garage into usable living area. Or, I suppose, storage space.

Interesting concept, but the thing I’ve not figured out yet is how families with kids will get around. You need car seats, and different sized kids need different sized seats. With so many drivers toting kids around, it’s hard to believe that this is close to reality.
