Yes, how else do yo want to connect the streets which are
ending at this place?
In your case, the parking area in the north wouldn't be reacheable
anymore.

And yes, I myself don't like to have only the border of an area
routeable, I would prefer if we could create invisible ways
crossing the area and connecting all ways ending at the place,
but I have no idea how this could be done.
