$1 million to buy a car parking spot

Posted by Hassan Siddiqi on Sep 13, 2014

Would you pay $1 million USD for a parking space? Developers in New York City think so. 42 Crosby Street, a posh residential district in Lower Manhattan, New York City has a severe shortage of parking spaces and each parking space is now being leased for 99 years for a price of over $1 million dollars. In recent times, parking spaces have gone for as high as $500,000 USD but never at $1 million USD. This one sets the benchmark high. At this price, you don't even own the parking, you can only lease it. The lease will expire when a tenant moves out. I prefer paying 4,000 AED per year for basement parking in Dubai!
