Default Parking Guide.

are you coming to city? you want to know where you can park? these are my suggestions.

from jersey to midtown.
- park it at port imperial and take ferry. parking costs around $9 (I think) and ferry costs about $6 to midtown. if you are going to javit center, In my opinion, this is the best route.

lower manhattan - Lorie's recommendation.
- pier 40 parking lot on west side hwy. they are about $15. can't beat that price.

Fort Lee
- Our usual meeting spot for the event. it's a municipal parking lot. I'll post direction later.

please add more recommendations.

thanks,

need to park in NYC/Manhattan? and don't really want to drive around Manhattan or leave the car with a human being attendant?

42nd Street Park & Lock between 9th & 10th Aves- nice wide spots in single rows - no attendants shuffling cars - secure.

Prices have recently gone up in before 10am $14 dollars/day after 10am $19/day

there are a few other park & Lock facilities in Manhattan - this one is just outside of the Lincoln tunnel

The parking garage underneath Chase charged me $65!

bkw, are you looking for a self park or a good garage w/ attendants???

Until very recently, I drove in 1 or 2 times a week for the last few years and parked on 47th at 2nd. The garage I used is on the right hand side of the street. DON"T use the left hand side garage, a cramped POS. I NEVER had a dent, ding or paint chip. You will see a few Ferraris, Lambo, Porshe, etc in the garage.

Early bird (before 10:00am) was $19.00 (tax included) until close. I usually threw the guys $5 when I left it in the morning and $5 when I picked it up. Money well spent - - - after the first few weeks, they would bring it up to street level and I wouldn't have to wait after I paid.

btw, at the time I worked at JPMC at 47th & Park. Now I'm downtown at 75 Wall.

I too used to work at JPMC at 270 Park. I'm now diagonally across the street at UBS @ 299 Park

What dept are/were you in?

bkw, at the time I was in a projects group within Rates Middle Office (Investment Bank-Dan McDonagh), moved to Corporate Resiliency Risk Management (Paula Larkin), both at 270 and now I'm a business manager for the GTI Portfolio and Program Management Group.

Note the garage I mentioned is directly across the street from the 'Y' in the same building as the Ruth Chris.
