Midtown Manhattan takes the prize for the nation’s highest parking ratesBy Matthew Sedacca

Drivers who park in Midtown Manhattan better have trunks full of cash.
The nabe takes the top spot nationwide for the most expensive parking costs, with $443.51 being the cheapest monthly price for a space in the area, according to a report by FINN car subscription service.
The cost for a garage parking or valet spot in the bumper-to-bumper Big Apple nabe dwarfed those in other cities, with San Francisco and Seattle ranking a distant second and third – at $300 and $250, respectively.
“The extra $300 a month I have to pay for [daily] parking in Midtown is ludicrous,” real estate broker Tricia Lee, 47, who regularly drives in to the East 50s for hair and dental appointments, told The Post.
“Manhattan parking has gotten completely unaffordable,” she added, noting that she shells out an additional $600 for parking near her office in SoHo. “Even the fact I can afford it, it’s a waste of money.”
