$25 To Park At New Digs?

Ben Kabak at RAB has the story.
This is probably connected to the loss of new spots.
If there’s some smart person in Fort Lee, N.J., with a parking lot, they’ll offer parking there for fans in the Garden State, for less than that, and will run shuttle buses to and from the Stadium. Ditto anyone with a lot on the other side of the Macombs Dam Bridge in Manhattan.
AFAIK, there are a couple of places in Harlem that offer parking, but I am unsure if they are part of the Kinney system.
I doubt the places on the other side of the Macombs Dam would start to offer a shuttle. They would probably bump up their prices to $25 too if they started doing that. You’re just going to be in for a longer walk is all. Currently there are a couple private lots charging about $20 on River Ave. I can only assume those will go up in price too.
I figure I have all of next season to figure this shit out. Maybe some sort of mass transit thing can be arranged. I just have to get used to getting home at 1am. Or maybe if I take a train from Metropark I can just sleep in my office when I get back.
My other option was to sell some of my tickets on StubHub (since it’s legal now for Yankee ticket holders). I could make some parking money from that.
