Last time I went to NYC, to do some records research at the Municipal Archives on Chambers Street in Manhattan, it cost me $100 to park for less then a day. Never again.
I DO have fond memories in the 1960s when me and friends cut school and took a trip to China Town to buy fireworks. In New Jersey, there was a place where the bus drivers got coffee in the morning.
