Parking Meters Rates to Increase Mid-October

by Mindy Cohn

Starting October 16, New York City hourly parking meter rates will increase citywide. 

The rate change will vary depending on the location, demand, and the length of parking.

The rate increases will begin on a rolling basis starting in Manhattan on October 16. Brooklyn will follow starting November 9, and the Bronx's rate increases will take effect on November 22.

The official reason for the increase is to create more parking availability in high-demand areas.
