I need information about parking at Pier 90 in New York city

[cricri7]

Hi guys....I will be leaving in a little more than 2 weeks from now on the Veendam. For the first time, I am going by car with my family and will be needing to park in New York. We have 2 options in front of us...either park near the hotel and take a cab to the pier or take the car out of the parking at the hotel to go the Pier 90 parking. I have no idea what the parking at the Pier looks like. I tried to gather information online about the parking but there isn't much....I have a couple of questions:

 

*is it indoor?

*is there security?

*since you can't make a reservation, do you have to get there very early or do they have enough place for everyone?

 

We will be spending a couple of nights before the cruise and maybe 1 night after the cruise so is it worth the hassle of moving the car to save maybe 10$ a day since the parking at the Pier is usually cheaper than parking in New york in a garage where the price is usually around 40-45$.

 

I will gladly hear your opinion on this question:)

its on top of the pier(its outdoor I have posted an aerial photo of it before)-its out side

its extremely secure- its in an area that is designated as secure by DHS(department of Homeland security)..

Personally I have never had a problem with a space arriving at 11:30 or so.

By moving the car to the pier, not only are you likely saving money versus parking at the hotel, you're also saving the taxi fare from the hotel to the pier and return.

I would stay at a hotel in Secause New Jersey. Embassy Suites has a park/cruise/shuttle package.
