95% of the busses that drive through Manhattan start and end there, compared to the subways that start and end in outer boroughs and fill up with all kinds of proles on their way in.
Busses also have drivers who will call the police, kick people off, etc. Subway conductors can’t do that.
Busses are superior in every way except speed, and they are the only option to go cross-town. |

There's a cute little lot for Riverside Park which is free and always had parking. You could also go to Fort Tryon. Finding street parking isn't hard around Central Park West either, plus if you're getting groceries iirc Whole Foods used to validate. We used the car all the time. We also always had large dogs so having your own car was the way to go everywhere together if you couldn't walk it. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5698628&forum_id=2Elisa#48775936) |
|
Date: March 23rd, 2025 8:51 PM Author: Buses Yeah i get that. Sounds cr based on your locations. You were far far west and then far far north. No shade. I'm downtown. I used to play the street parking sweeper game where you would move your car and repark or immediately. It's insane and completely untenable.
Anyway point remains that there's no way you were driving around mfh daily to different functions |
|
Date: March 23rd, 2025 9:16 PM Author: .,.,...,..,.,.,:,,:,.,.,:::,...,:,...:..:.,:.::,. I mean, far far north is like Inwood. Agreed on far far west.
For regular parking you get a garage. I had one in both of those places. You would have one downtown. But without a dog or some other driver (like kids) it is probably easier to just deal with ubers, subway and whatever else.
I used my car anywhere between 3-5 days a week. Driving involved going to my garage, picking up my car, going somewhere and then going back to that garage. I didn't really worry about ending up losing a parking spot. I especially did it frequently when I lived in midtown west because the best places to walk your dog were Central Park and Riverside and neither was a walkable distance but you could often find parking easily. |
|
Date: March 24th, 2025 6:53 AM Author: Buses Downtown is much different in terms of parking than 42nd st and 18th Avenue. Parking is stupidly expensive and impossible to find bc of massive apartment complexes going up every where and millions of Jewish men with their Asian wives moving in.
Even the garage in our building, which costs a fucking fortune, is just a huge pain in the ass to get you car out of there |
|
Date: March 24th, 2025 11:04 AM Author: .,.,...,..,.,.,:,,:,.,.,:::,...,:,...:..:.,:.::,. Interesting. Each of the garages I rented were valet so you just call ahead and it is at the front waiting for you. But downtown always seemed like a pretty bad place to live but if you work there I can see how it would make sense. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5698628&forum_id=2Elisa#48777090) |

You don’t have to fuck with going underground, you have cell service the entire time, they have charging ports for phones, drivers don’t let thugs on the bus, the clientele is much less prole on average (since all busses you would ever take in MFH start and end in MFH rather than outer boroughs like subways).

I take the crosstown bus a lot (UWS<->UES) because there's no subway equivalent.
Almost every avenue has a bus too so if I'm walking along somewhere and see a bus coming my way I'll just hop on. |

He says if homeless or vagrants try and get on the bus the bus driver won't let 'em on. The bus is extremely prestigious.
Also clean, safe, and prestigious is central park. Patrolled non-stop, clean af, no littering. For some reason it's only the SUBWAY that libs have ruined. Every New Yorker knows never to take the SUBWAY. |
