Check Out the Free Music

NYC is a hotbed of music festivals during the summer months. Free concerts can be found all around NYC during the the warmer season. Icon Parking makes it easy to find the perfect spot to park and enjoy the sounds. You can reserve parking ahead of time and take in the summer fun. Choose from any one of the great concerts in the park to spend an evening or afternoon listening to great music on the streets.

Walk Around the City

Summer in the city has a lot to offer. Strolling around the parks, taking in the sights, and spending time discovering new things about the city is a great way to spend a summer’s day. Park your car in a safe location you can track and get out and walk around. There’s a lot to do and see on any given day in NYC. Why not take the time to explore NYC on foot and see things from a different perspective?

The Zoos, Museums, and More

NYC’s rich culture comes alive in the summer months. Take a walk through Central Park Zoo, visit Battery Park, take a ferry ride, and check out all the special events held at some of the world’s most famous museums. The list of things to do and see in the city during the summer months is extensive, and locating all the cool places becomes much easier with our parking locations.

According to the Department of Transportation, about $73 billion annually is wasted in fuel and time searching for parking. Luckily, those that know how to use Icon Parking avoid the search effort and spend their time fully enjoying the city. Reserve your parking with Icon, and don’t worry about where to park.
