To officials at St. Barnabas Hospital in the Bronx, NY, replacing an overcrowded parking lot with a five-story parking garage would end the daily hassle of fighting for a space, benefiting staff members and visitors alike.

But a doctors union is arguing that the project should not qualify for stimulus money because it claims the project would eliminate 20 parking attendant jobs, the New York Times reports.
