New York has long been home to some of the most expensive apartments in the world. But now the city that never sleeps is getting a new icon of excess—a $1 million parking spot, reports the New York Post. Buying it would be the same as paying a $115 ticket for illegal parking every day for 24 years, notes the paper. The 12-by-23-foot spot is located on East 11th Street inside a former eight-story parking garage, which was bought for $120 million and is now being turned into six luxury condos with inside parking.
"It’s for someone who wants complete privacy," said one financial high-flyer. "You can drive in and not be seen again. It’s for the type of person who finds that attractive. It could be a celebrity or a business person who is camera shy." Interested, but unwilling to pay more than, say, $500,000? Good news: You could essentially pay that per car. The spot is 15 feet tall, meaning it could be outfitted with a lift that would allow for the storage of two vehicles. (More luxury homes stories.)
