[QUOTE="mathematics, post: 315332, member: 10356"] what you are probably referring to is called "alternate side parking". in nyc we have street cleaning regulations. for 90 minutes on certain streets you are not allowed to park, say, from 10am til 11:30am while the nyc department of sanitation sends a street cleaner through. now, when that happens in a residential area of manhattan, everyone on that side of the street just double parks on the other side so the street cleaner can get through. the double parked cars in this instant do not get ticketed. i know this all too well from when i went to college in manhattan and got stuck on the wrong side of the street when i got out of class and had to wait for everyone to move their damn cars, haha. or you could just be talking about mid-to lower manhattan where it isn't residential. in that case, cars are parked seemingly anywhere and it SUCKS. by the way, i saw the 43rd street manhattan UPS facility yesterday for the first time while stuck at a traffic light for 20 minutes trying to get to the lincoln tunnel. That building is pretty impressive. I saw package cars and trailers parked on the roof. Apparently everything is loaded/unloaded inside the building. the building takes up the entire block; i think from 43rd to 44th streets between 11th and 12th aves. [/QUOTE]
