Many NYers park on the street in free spots. In the five boroughs, there are 3,000,000 free street spots. Regardless of the issue between gas vs. electric, there aren’t enough places to park. Private parking garages in NYC. charge between $250 and $1,000 per month for a parking space

There are nearly ZERO charging stations in NYC.

Please explain how this is supposed to work.
