On December 14, the first coronavirus vaccine in the United States was administered to a New York City healthcare worker. It was just the beginning of the drive to get everyone vaccinated, at which time we will be able to return to pre-pandemic life.

However, some aspects of pandemic life have made their mark on New York. When streets all over the city were closed to cars to make room for proper social distancing, it didn't take long for the new space to be embraced. Indeed, it only took a few months for Open Restaurants to go from a temporary way for restaurants to reopen to a permanent program. To the delight of locals and tourists alike, traffic was restricted around Rockefeller Center during the holiday season to allow for greater enjoyment of the Christmas tree and the light show on Saks Fifth Avenue. And anyone who's waited in line for Shakespeare in the Park has their calendar marked for March 1, 2021, the date a new Open Culture program is set to start allowing cultural institutions to host outdoor exhibitions and performances.

Some New Yorkers are excited about the expanded uses of city streets and see the changes as instrumental in a permanently pedestrian-friendly city. Car owners, however, are noticeably less enthusiastic about anything that could reduce the number of parking spaces in the city (outdoor dining took up as many as 10,000 spaces!). Between new outdoor programming, a dramatic increase in vehicle registrations, and increasingly vocal advocates for mass transit and open streets, it is little wonder that one driver told The New York Times, “It’s like the Hunger Games for parking.”
Rockefeller Center The plan to open up 100 miles of NYC streets to pedestrians is said to follow the model done around Rockefeller Center
New York City’s spike in car sales occurred at the height of the pandemic, when many were skittish about public transportation, but the city has spent the past few years reducing the number of parking spaces to make way for other initiatives that would benefit the city as a whole. A NY1 report from January 2017 found that in Manhattan alone, and only south of 125th Street, the city eliminated at least 2,330 parking spaces to make way for bike lanes and bike-sharing stations. At the end of 2019, a Department of Transportation analysis for the New York Post found that approximately 6,100 parking spaces were eliminated, removed for part of the day, or turned into delivery zones. And just days before the city went on lockdown in March 2020, the Department of Sanitation was getting ready to announce new initiatives to get garbage bags off the sidewalks and into sealed, on-street containers that logic dictates would be put in spaces once reserved for parking.
With parking spaces disappearing left and right, it is natural for car owners to wonder if there is a place for them, literally and figuratively, in this new normal. Developers throughout the five boroughs have recognized this and made deeded parking an amenity in their buildings, with some incorporating features like automated parking and furnished waiting rooms. To move into one of these buildings is to never have to worry about alternate side-street parking or someone stealing your spot, and we highlight some listings below.
