College Prowler Take
Parking at Fordham boils down to one word: useless. Public transportation is the major means of transportation in New York, so why increase the already heavy street congestion? Rose Hill commuters can enjoy an affordable parking pass to be obtained from the security office a week or so before classes begin. Residents are not permitted to park on campus. Lincoln Center students are not even offered a parking option. While there are several surrounding garages, prices are extremely high (the best deal you might find will be $150 a month). Street parking is always an option, if you enjoy frantically navigating the busy rush-hour streets for a non-meter spot, hit-or-miss parallel parking, or sprinting outside every hour to refill your meter. To be frank, New York is not the city for automobiles (unless they’re bright yellow and charge by the quarter mile). Neither Rose Hill nor Lincoln Center encourages students to bring cars and for a very good reason: pure inconvenience. There are many alternatives to driving to school that are cheaper and faster than starting your own engine. Save gas, toll money, and a lot of unnecessary parking stress by trading your keys for a Subway Metrocard. Students Speak Out

In New York City, a car is more of a liability than a convenience. If you're planning to commute, you can easily find parking space in our enormous garage. Otherwise, you don't need to worry about parking. |

Parking on campus is expensive, but no one brings a car here. Seriously, we're three blocks away from a subway station and 10 steps away from Metro-North. Plus, the Ram Van will get you into Manhattan in under 30 minutes.

Why would you have to park here? You’re so close to the subway. Cars in the city are such drags. |

Do not drive to Lincoln Center—that’s stupid. Parking will cost you way more than a Metrocard. |

I feel bad for Bronx commuters. I mean, taking the trains is one thing, but driving during rush hour only to park far away and pay for it? It can’t be fun. |
