Are you a New Yorker who owns a car in the city and can’t be bothered with street parking? We want to hear your curious, vexing or surprising adventures with parking lots and driveways for an upcoming story.
If you have a driveway, do you rent it out? What is it like to be landlord of a sliver of asphalt? Or do you rent someone else’s driveway? Is your driveway shared, requiring delicate rules of engagement? If you car lives in a parking garage, did you sit on a waiting list for years? Did you ever lose your spot? Does the garage have puzzling retrieval rules? Or have the rates gone through the roof?
I will read every response, then reach out to some of you to continue the conversation. I will not publish any part of your response without contacting you first. I will not share your contact information outside the Times newsroom, and will use it only to follow up with you directly.
