Do you know how much it costs to park in the loop?

You don't need one at Boalt. There are conceivable situations were a car would be helpful (as there would be at any school), but you'd be fine without one.rickfox wrote:Most helpful in, I'm guessing, Michigan, Duke, and UVA. Maybe boalt too?
Yea this was a few months back when I first picked her up. Learned that lesson real quick. I won't have access to a garage though, and I can't imagine 1L living conditions in Chicago, NY, or A2 being large enough to accommodate wheels and everything. I could keep her at my house in NJ if I ended up in NY, but then I'd just be worried my mom would take her out for weekend cruises more than I would . The more I've thought about it, the only place I'm likely to keep it is Berkeley, but I am considering a cheap Discovery if I move to Michigan for the snowy conditions.paul34 wrote:Proper winter tires can help a great deal with your Z, as can staying out of boost.

No, lol, I really can't bring my car to areas with a lot of snow/rain because I'm liable to die driving if I do lol. I've got a 300zx TT from the 90s so not only is it rwd, but I've literally 360 drifted across an LA on ramp after getting new tires and not aligning them when my boost kicked in. They are very prone to fishtailing/drifting in moisturized conditions. Been terrified to drive in rain / snow that's heavy ever since. Plus the salt will just eat out the bottom so I'd rather just sell her to someone that will love and cherish her (it should be apparent I've got an unhealthy relationship with my car).
The few weeks I lived in Ithaca convinced me that it would be a huge pain to live there without car.FlanAl wrote:I don't have one at Cornell but really wish I did.

I don't know specifically about legal jobs in Chicago for this, but every big employer downtown where I live has it's own ramp or underground garage. I would guess many cities would be the same. Chicago may be the exception though because the transit is so good.JamMasterJ wrote:semi-related question: do you know whether jobs typically offer free or cheap parking to employees?

BTW anew: the number 2 bus is very regular and goes up to Navy Pier from HP
In Chicago even if there is a garage in the building, there is no guarantee that you will even get to use it, much less get a discount. I have never even heard of anyone getting free parking. I'm sure there are exceptions, but that is NOT the rule. I have worked in the loop for several years; I know what I'm talking about here.Opie wrote: I don't know specifically about legal jobs in Chicago for this, but every big employer downtown where I live has it's own ramp or underground garage.

Where I work I get ramp parking, free bus rides, and there is skywalk access to the building. I never have to go outside if I don't want to.

Yeah, I'm not that familiar with Chicago in that regard. I've worked in a couple of other cities though and it's standard a lot of places.Holly Golightly wrote:In Chicago even if there is a garage in the building, there is no guarantee that you will even get to use it, much less get a discount.

In the loop. But employers outside the loop usually provide parking.Holly Golightly wrote:It is definitely not the norm. In a city like Chicago, where there are great public transit options even from the suburbs, most places aren't going to go out of their way to help you figure out a way to drive.

Now there's a charge.
