Parking lot options outside of PS but nearby?

I'm trying to find a lot and somewhere to park my car, but I'm not looking for a garage in PS. I'm willing for my car to be a few subway stops away and sacrifice convenience for a little extra money because I need my car only on weekend trips and the occasional job travel.

Anybody have any suggestions or know of somewhere?

Thanks.

    Whenever I want to ditch my car for a long time and not pay for parking I drive it out to Long Beach and take the train back to Atlantic Center. There is plentiful free parking out there with no alternate side stuff - and it seems pretty safe. This may be further than you want, but it's very easy and free.

    Thanks for the suggestion.

    I'd probably want to find a surface lot a little bit closer than that, but I had never considered your idea before.

    On Coney Island Avenue btwn kermit and caton place, there is a new apt building that offers underground parking (open for a fee to non-residents).
    The B68 bus is directly across the street and the Ft. Hamilton subway stop is close as well.

    There is an open air lot on Prospect Park Southwest between Reeve and Greenwood. They have a sign up that says parking for rent

    There are several lots under the Brooklyn Bridge that you could get to via the York St F stop

    There is a parking garage on Sackett off Columbia in the Columbia St. Waterfront District (as the realtors call it). I'm not sure what the cost is but I remember thinking it was reasonable (for NYC). Or you can just park your car on the street around there. I think you only have to move it once a week. I would suggest parking on Columbia or in front of residential buildings to be on the safer side.
