"Help me out. If BK is at the top of Crescent St, where are they putting parking?"
You just answered your own question:
"To provide the 1,000 parking spaces needed for the proposed uses, First Republic also plans to build parking structures at the southwestern end of the complex as well as on the two existing lots across Crescent Street."
There is space next to the left side (if looking at the building) of the building. Also the 2 lots across the street. In addition the Fitch school will be closing (next year?) so that property will be up for grabs.
"And can the area handle the additional traffic?"
I don't think it will be any different - the place at one time was filled with office space (I guess now its mostly empty). As the article mentions, they are doing a traffic study (and Steve Rourke is involved - head of the Island Neighborhood association and a on the city council iirc).
