If the monthly parking is second only to NY in North America, can you imagine the daily or hourly rates? The cheapest daily rate to my office is $29, and that's the early bird rate. And half the time it's full by 7am when I get there, meaning parking in the next lot over at $34.
Not to mention that there's waiting lists at most parking lots and parkades for monthly parking.
Parking in this city is hell. Expensive hell.

I just find the parking high, but it's really all relative to what you make and income one has, someone else may find them affordable, but for us it really is a hardship and only way to pay is to reduce grocery budget.
I just don't think parking should be charged for medical appointments and that is where my issue is, otherwise I am okay with paid parking for most other things.
I do think employers should pay for their employees parking though, airline always did for us, and airport parking isn't cheap.

I saw a sign the other day that said "Monthly parking only."
What if you want to drive your car during the month?

We just spent a night in Downtown, parking at the hotel was $40 for the one night.

Will we see the day when hotels charge a supplement for a pillow? And then, when that's become the norm, a bed?

Downtown hotels can get away with charging for things that non-downtown locations never could.
