Drivers should grab some extra quarters if you plan on parking on the streets of New York Monday.
Thanks to new meter rate hikes, parking in Manhattan south of 86th Street increased from $2.50 to $3.00 per hour.
In locations where the rate is 25 cents for 20 minutes, drivers will only get 15 minutes.
However some drivers will get a bit of a break because changing all those meters takes time. The new rates won’t kick in up in the Bronx until March and Department of Transportation workers in Brooklyn and Staten Island won’t start changing the meters in those boroughs until April.

Well yes how do you expect the city to pay overtime for Sant. guys who got stuck on purpose?
Or how about that I came to my car this morning- and my tire was slashed and the driver side- rear door was destroyed too- those plows are doing more damage then good at this point!
