There is a pretty new service in Manhattan (and part of Brooklyn), San Francisco, etc where parking is difficult. You download the app, put in where you're going, they meet you there, take your car, park it in one of their lots and return it to you when you want it back. In my experience they are much cheaper than any Manhattan lots and that includes taking your car from exactly where you want to go and bringing it back - no walking involved. If your interested, I would greatly appreciate if you would use my Luxe referral code: RACHEL198 for a $20 credit on your first park! Download the app via

Thanks!
Also, they seem to count the amount of hours from drop off until they start driving it back (not until they drop it off) so if you have an hour and 15 min appointment in the city you will most likely only pay for 1 hour...
