Extract : « Tech-savvy visitors to Arthur Avenue no longer need to circle the crowded corridor hunting a place to park — an app will guide them to open spaces.

And once they leave their cars, no need to interrupt the table talk in their favorite trattoria to feed their meters — they can refill with a swipe of their smartphones. […]

For registered users, scanning the symbols will allow them to pay to park in one of more than 260 spaces along 18 block faces of Arthur Avenue and 187th Street without the use of cash or a credit card.

Later, if they need more parking time, users can feed their meters remotely. »
