    I got mine at KORE, but that is probably further than you are willing to travel. Muncee, PA. Someone else asked about this last week maybe, if you want to scroll through the thread.

    Have you looked at spot hero? Seems the cheapest parking for 24h is valet, when do you plan on going?

    Where abouts do you live? Parking will be safer, more convenient and less expensive near a train station other than Newark Penn. I’ve used Union, Metuchen and Metro Park to get into the city and I don’t even go into the city often.

    Do yourself a favor and stay in PA it’s much nicer there. If you insist on going to New York Shitty and wanna take the path to WTC your best bet is park in a parking garage in Hoboken and take the path from there. Easy to get to, easy to park, your car will still have its wheels when you get back and the path ride is only 5 minutes

    I work downtown Newark. Agreed, not the best place. Depends if you mind walking to to the train or if you need to park right next to it?
    I personally don’t mind walking to it, but everyone is different when it comes to comfort in the ghetto.
    As mentioned, parking in a nearby station might be better. Like summit or Millburn. They’re on your way from PA and depending On the day you’re visiting, might even be free parking. So the cost of NJ transit may offset the parking fee in Newark.

    Thanks for all the suggestions, someone else recommended i use amtrak from pa into nyc, then use the subway to get to wtc
    Not rushing to get there so i have time to weigh the options
    Also considering a tour bus day trip

    Why not take the waterway from Hoboken or Weehawken? It should take you right there and you get a boat ride.
