How Will You Save Your Parking Spot?

Is someone itching to move into 190-192 E 5th Street? Or did they really want to protect their parking space?

Plans for this 6-unit residential establishment don’t include enclosed parking. When families move in, parking around E 5th Street will become more scarce. Yet, the owners of 190-192 E 5th Street will undoubtedly be able to find tenants.

Mayor Bloomberg recently announced NYC has a net population gain for the first time in 60 years. The report named Brooklyn as the most popular borough for new residents, though part of the 2.4% increase is due to births outpacing deaths.
