When we lived in New York, I would always call a friend, Josh, when I needed parking advice.
Either someone with a car was visiting or I had one for a few days and I’d say to him:
“Ok, we need the car from 10am-1pm on Tuesday, then from 8am-11am on Wed. and from 5pm-9pm on Thursday,” and Josh, who knew all of the street cleaning and parking rules by heart, would develop a customized plan.
Something along the lines of:
“ok, park east of Broadway, but not south of 110th st. Then, move your car to anywhere below 96th st., and sit in it-double parked for 30 minutes, before moving it west of Columbus…”
It was phenomenal.
