For Better and for Worse. Earlier this year, the city added several additional "No Parking" and "Residential Permit Parking Only" signs to the streets that surround the Hyde Park/SoHo business district. Enforcement of those signs began early March; which has pleased many who live in the area (and need a place to park), while upsetting some business owners who feel harder parking translates to fewer customers.
