Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

It's easy to discover that unless you have to drive outside of the city, it's best to stick with public transportation. Parking is hard, and cab drivers do not like to share the road with other cars. 

Driving into Manhattan will cost you in tolls and also extremely high parking rates. Traffic is really bad, and most cab drivers drive with rage, making it unsafe for others on the road. Parking regulations are strict and vary from street to street. It is suggested to take advantage of the transportation that is provided to the public, through buses and subways.

Cars Are Unnecessary at FIT

It is completely unnecessary to have a car at FIT. Driving in Manhattan is a nightmare to begin with, and with all the classroom buildings right next to each other, there is no need for a car. There is parking outside the resident halls and nearby lots for move-in days, but other than that, there is no need for a car.

Getting a Parking Permit

There is no student parking at FIT.

Did You Know? Although the best places to park without getting a ticket are in parking garages or clearly marked parking lots, the price to park is outrageous.
