I suppose there's not much demand in that area for a surface parking lot.

The owners of White Spot sold the site in 2017, but kept the restaurant running until 2020 when COVID meant they decided to not renew the lease. The site owners weren't ready to develop then, but they presumably didn't want the liability of a closed restaurant, and it was demolished. It's understandable, given how unknown the future of restaurants was when the decision was made to close.
I don't think a surface parking lot would be viable there, even if the City allowed one. The dog park is probably as good as can be expected to happen for a few years. At least Anthem's Park and the Bosa tower are being built, and the other stalled buildings proposed in the area haven't been cleared, so it's not much of an impact overall.
