While walking around NYC I often notice people driving around slowly clearly trying to find a free spot to park, and most time swith little success as street side parking in NYC is generally filled up so quickly and hence parking garages like the ones I will shar ein this post must do a good business.

I see many of these layered parking spots around, and I often wonder if these are more for longer-term parking daily or weeky, I dont imagine they could be used much for hourly parking with the effort of stacking up the cars on the various levels to get cars in and out, but I could well be wrong.

But I guess people who just want to park for a few minutes or even an hour or so may look for a street side parking spot to save paying the fees fopr parking Garages, this underground one for example charges $6.76 for up to half an hour, and this is reasonable compard to other parking garages in some parts of the city.

And finishing off showing even Police Cars have trouble finding spots, this is near a Station in the Upper Westside, and I suspect between shifts as the street was full with Police cars, and I saw a few pull up and the Police officers head into the station.

NOw this is not criticising the Police Officer for parking this way, they at least left space for people to walk by on the footpath, I have seen other cars parked like this but pulled right up to the wall or fence and completely blocking the footpath.
