Parking on Street & Parking Garages (New York, York: safer, train, cars)

[Nova10]

Side note: I looked to see where this thread already exists but did not find one.

The low down: Please inform me where visitors can park in NYC or anywhere reasonably in the outskirts and get back into Manhattan easily.

I keep hearing there are parking garages for as little as $15.00/day. I CAN'T IMAGINE this because everywhere I look online they're 10x that much.

We've heard horror stories of cars being stripped with (far) out-of-town tags, of parking garages banging up/scratching cars, etc., and of people returning to parking garages for their car and the attendants needing three-four hours' notice to retrieve car. WTH?

Anyone w/ any experience and knowledge, please inform. We beg you.

A tad more info: Just needing to park close or inside of Manhattan area for a day or two at a time for the next few months. Need to leave car to do work around city. Would like to be able to also park it overnight.

You could park in Queens and take the subway back into Manhattan.

Parking at Secaucus Junction is $10 weekdays and $5 nights and weekends and it's a 10-minute train ride on NJ Transit to New York Penn Station. Your car will be safer than in any part of Queens that's that close to Mahattan.
