The NYC DOT has replaced all single-space meters throughout the city with muni-meters.
Muni-meters have several advantages over single-space parking meters, include the convenience of a pay-and-display system, the reduction of unnecessary sidewalk encumbrances, and additional capacity for parked cars in the same curb space.
DOT completed replacing all single space parking meters in Manhattan during the summer of 2011. Installation in the other boroughs completed work in January, 2013.For more information on muni-meter installations, contact your local Borough Commissioner’s office
