Parking for two cars in the Pearl..

My DH and I have been looking into apts all over the Pearl and Nob hill area. Parking for two cars is SO expensive! Most places only take 1 car with their lease which is still 150 a month. It seems crazy to pay 300 dollars to park 2 cars.. Is this typical or are there places maybe we just havent found that will allow for 2 cars.. Or my other thought is off street parking..is this even an option? Are there sections that you can park for free, not having to run out to the meters every 3 house?Thanks so much!

Re: Parking for two cars in the Pearl..

  • Supply and demand. I think what you're finding is typical. Nob hill has free street parking (for now) but it's not always easy to find since you're fighting with everyone else (other residents and shoppers) to find a free spot. The Pearl really was designed as a neighborhood where you don't need a car. Portland, as a whole, isn't really a car-friendly place.
  • Ditto PP.  If you're living in the Pearl, I doubt you'll need a car.  you have easy access to bus, MAX and streetcar.  Do you know where you'll be working?  I'd sell one car and have one of you use public transport.  A lot of companies will pay for a bus pass.
  • I second and third the other responses. You might try hunting around on Craigslist for someone who lives in the area that does not have a car and wants to rent out their parking spot.
