Costs of Parking in PH?

Hello all,

my mom has a wonderful car which she doesn't drive much anymore and I am thinking of buying from her. I am only wary about the parking.

How much does a monthly parking rental cost in PH? Does anyone know of an individual with a garage to rent? Or does anyone have a garage that is affordable, that they like?

thoughts?

thanks in advance.

    Right around you, $280+/mo, a bit less if you go out further towards CH or elsewhere.

    The garage on Underhill b/t Prospect and St. Marks is $250/month (including taxes). The one on St. Marks b/t Underhill and Vanderbilt was $225 last time I checked.

    just play the whole drive around until you find a legit free parking spot game. or get a bike! gas prices are insane. car free for 4 years here (still its nice to have one). i have a gig tonight in the east village for example and have to bring my amp/guitar/effects/etc, so i am forced to take a car service, i am sure they will rape my wallet. $250 a month for parking, plus gas, plus insurance is nuts, but if you can swing that, by all means.

    I'm beginning to see the light BrooklynLager. I've kept a car just for band purposes like the scenario you described. But beyond those occasional scenarios I pretty much just have a car so I can move it twice a week, pay insurance and get it repaired now and again when people crash into it while it's parked. Point is, anyone want to buy my car?

    someone in my building is renting out a parking space. Let me know if you're interested and I'll put you in touch with her.

    How much for the spot? (And where is the location?)

    Assuming it's still available.

    I think they're asking $300 a month. might be negotiable. It's indoors on saint marks and washington.

    Oh . . . we're paying $230/mo for the garage on St. John's near Franklin Park. Thanks anyway.

    really i have a car and i live on underhill/st johns and parking isnt that hard. its fairly easy to just park on the street. and your cars fairly safe.

    I would agree with this, except to add that if you are an infrequent driver it _is_ a PITA because of the hokey pokey alternate side parking dance.
