What are they doing?

FOR MONTHS construction workers have been doing their thing in my backyard. First they tore up a few hundred meters of brickwork and promptly replaced it. Now they are, well, I am not exactly sure what the hell they are doing. What was a parking lot is getting the treatment. Certainly, the industrial gardeners and stonemasons must be ecstatic. The tired old asphalt is being replaced with expensive paving stones and the trees, bushes and flowers I don't know the names of are being laid and planted. But to what end? Embedded in the stonework are white lines that at first were nicely symmetrical, apparent parking places for autos. But things went haywire yesterday. Unless your car is 30 meters long my one meter, the new "parking spots" just won't do. My wife says it is going to be a bicycle parking lot. I say I have no idea. Plant more trees, I say. My dog likes them.
