Sorry, but I don't understand the whole parking-space colonization complex that goes on in St. Louis. It's a public street. People have visitors. Walking is good for you. That goes for your tire-popping neighbors and you.
If you're handicapped and require the out-front space, you should designate the spot as such with the city.
Where my parents lived in Bevo, the bar down the street made it impossible to park on weekends. I'd have to either park far down the street or on the next one---or consider not taking the car at all.
In New Orleans, I live in the French Quarter. I don't own or have access to a car anymore. I carry groceries eight blocks. But I love city living. It may just be me.
Now, if you're constantly harassed walking from your parking space to your house, that's a different issue. But if you're an able-bodied male with an at least neutral relationship with the neighbors, you should be fine parking down the block and walking, right?
