All of this construction brings more and more commuters and residents into the city. All of those people have to park somewhere, so no matter how much you increase the parking rates it will not solve the problem. Eventually some of those business will be driven away because people will be tired of parking and rail situation.

Point taken. However, do you mean increase supply on on-street parking, or parking in general? Because from my experience, the former really isn't feasible on anything bigger than a spot by spot basis, and the latter doesn't seem to be an issue currently.
