An article in the NY Times today mentioned single car parking garages going for $225,000 in Manhattan, and $50,000 in Long Island City. Things sure have changed from when I scraped together $5650 to put a down payment on my first $56,500 condo on Avenue B.
Henry the 1990 Ford is quite smug about all this, as his value is clearly more than the nine hundred and three dollars Turbo and I paid for him in Torrance on my birthday in 2002. Henry is sleeping in his cool garage, locked up and getting his summer rest while I go do my part in Egyptian Comic Books: the Sequel.
Speaking of which, I don't have the right clothes. I never do. Maybe I'll be able to buy something frumpy-modest in Frankfurt when I change planes tomorrow.
