Parking Woes in YYC
Collier's International, which is a realestate firm in North America, released a report that pits Calgary as the second most expensive city for metropolitan parking. Calgary is second only to New York City. You know the place, the Big Apple, bright lights, the clash of culture, the concrete jungle of awesome. Calgary on the other hand, the meandering sleeping city who's core shuts down at 4 PM on a Friday afternoon, yea, we have the second highest cost for parking. The majority of that cost is both short term solutions, and of course the dreaded monthly parking if you so desired to be among the elite driving into downtown on any given day.
Crazy to say the least. Albeit, we've increased modestly over the past year, it's still a dubious distinction.
