| I'm driving down to NYC with a friend meet up with someone in Chinatown. I know parking is hard to find but is there street/location I should look in? Is it a complete mad house because of the convention or is that in another area? I can always take the train down but cost $30. |

it's a madhouse in chinatown every day because of foot traffic, narrow streets, and lots of cars. the RNC is at MSG, which is about 4 miles up from c-town. u could find parking in another area of manhattan then just hop the subway down or something =P |

| Not directly in chinatown, but bowery, spring and grand streets are pretty good for parking |

| your best bet if you need to park in chinatown is division st or east broadway. personally i'd park in the village and train it down there... |

| i'm livin in this area right now and basically the free parking on the street is only usually after 6 p.m. till 8 in the morning or any saturday or sunday is all free. other than that u'll have to be looking at parking lots/garages or those meters on the side which are only 1 hour each. |
