Perhaps you would just like to see the parking behind the building instead of visible from the street. I'd prefer that too, but oh well.
Most whole foods urban prototypes put the parking on the roof. But since land in Detroit is practically free, a surface lot isn't surprising. But you think in a city with smash and grabs common with vehicles, parking would be in the building.....plus snow and rain.

But this has to be the lowest end design in their store portfolio which is unfortunate. That area had built up nicely with decent architecture and now this.
