5. Just park it anywhere. And leave the keys in it too. |
|
The always friendly & conscientious local residents will be sure that it is cared for properly & that no harm will come to it.

by Columbia University. When I visit my son there, I just park and then take a cab or subway. Hell of a lot cheaper and getting in and out of the city via GWB is a cinch.

18. what part of Manhattan are you driving to? |

It is possible to find parking on the street. Some garages will charge up to $40.00.
Down by the seaport there's an out door lot that charges $25.00 for 24 hours - and you keep your keys.

19. The Cross-Bronx Expressway |

. It will, of course, be a much, MUCH lighter car when you come back to it. . . . In 5 minutes. .

21. I guarantee you'll have NO problem finding a parking space on Governor's Island. |

The only problem is getting there...

22. Depending upon how patient you are, it is possible to find a |
|
metered parking space. The Upper West or the Upper East Sides are good because a lot of people who have cars go away for the weekends.

23. where are you driving from? I usually park around 23rd and Broadway. Uptown is hugely expensive. |
|
But most of the time now I don't drive all the way in. Drive to outskirts, park at train station and then take the train for last leg in.
