When you frame it that was ($450/month) I'm more amenable, but then I check myself: am I reacting emotionally to "low margin" and the bitterness, and maybe I'm just amenable to that?

Double checking myself, the person we're looking for:

- [works at / owns] a low margin business in downtown manhattan

- has a car

- needs their car in Manhattan

- has to take their car out of Manhattan at some point

- can afford to wait N days to enter Manhattan

Looking at that...yeah I do still think that's a null set.

If you're gesturing at the more general "it sucks people gotta pay $450/month", yeah, I can imagine this being a substantial addition to a pizza place's budget if they were relying on workers driving their own cars in from Queens.

Wash n fold services don’t deserve to exist in lower Manhattan. Good take.
"Yeah we lost the lottery today, so we can't pick up / drop off your clothes. No, we don't know if we'll win the lottery tomorrow either."
Guess wash and fold services will have to start charging $15 more per day, how horrific.
