Comment of the Day

With parking! Just imagine with all those nerds at NYCDOT wiping out curb spots and extending meters everywhere these buyers will have resolved their biggest problem up front.
Of course, you still have the mortgage and taxes to pay but no tix and no late night searching for a spot. Heaven.
