All this hysteria over a charge of $9 btw. In a city where parking for the day will cost you ~$50.

There was a guy who lives near Central Park and drives to see his kids who live near another part of Central Park that was crying about the toll, lol. I was like if the $9 is killing you, you could save thousands a month by living literally anywhere else.

Or simply walking. Central park isn't that big

Still only about a 40-50 minute walk. A bit long, but hardly unachievable. At the risk of sounding stereotypical, I walked that twice a day to school and back for years.
