So I'm guessing that #NYCDOT decided to go with "20' combined travel and parking lane" because they wouldn't be able to justify 12' travel lanes (ie, highway-sized lanes).
But a 20' combined travel/parking lane is 8' parking and 12' travel lane. That's a choice. Just like it's also a choice to make a 2-way PBL with 4' wide bike lanes in each direction.
