Thanks.
Street parking exists, but it requires you to pay a meter, have a resident parking permit, or respect the specified parking time allotment, which I don't think I've ever seen be longer than 2 hours.

It seems unlikely you could keep up with a parking meter. The Philadelphia Parking Authority is really good at what they do, and they hand out tickets at a surprisingly efficient rate.

Realistically the options are to get PA plates & a parking permit, lease an off-street parking spot, or ditch the car.
