While $300,000 will score you a pretty nice home in many American cities, that's the cost of a measly parking space in Brooklyn, New York. “That’s more than my parents paid for their house,” said Julie Hollar of the parking spot, which is in a Park Slope garage where the last spot sold for $280,000.
While critics decry the steep price as turning parking spaces into investment opportunities, NBC New York points out that, across the bridge in Manhattan, some spaces sell for $1 million or more.
