For Immediate Use Four Months ago Colliers International did a nationwide survey of 49 metropolitan areas on monthly parking rates. Earlier this month they did yet another survey; and what did they find? The average cost, monthly, to park in a Midtown Manhattan garage isn’t $491.80 anymore - it jumped to a whopping $574, in only 4 months! This represents an increase of over 14% and Downtown Manhattan experienced a similar increase of 11% for average monthly garage parking, from $444.40 to $500. With gas prices only getting worse everyday, New Yorkers are losing massive amounts of money to their cars, and fast. How can New Yorkers save? While one possible answer is to move to an area like West Palm Beach which charges only $8 for 24 hours of parking, not a whole lot of New Yorkers can actually take that option. So what should New Yorkers and those who frequent Manhattan do? The key is information - knowing not only where you can park your car but also when you can park it - for free. Author Erik Feder offers the right tool to make free and legal parking a reality with his books & ebooks that cover every single street in Manhattan from Battery Park - 124th Street, giving readers the inside scoop on just the right places to park. For those times when street parking just isn’t an option, "The Feder Guide" books & ebooks list over 450 parking garages as well as tricks and tips that help drivers avoid tickets and save money.
