If you arrive after 11am, you may have no trouble getting a space on the
Upper West Side.  The street cleaning schedule varies street to street, so
read the signs to figure out where the 8-11 and 11-2 shifts are at, and on
which days.  Coming just at the end of a shift is excellent, since everyone
is double parked on the other side of the street and plenty of spaces are
suddenly legal to use and freely available.

Actually, I probably shouldn't be telling you this since Manhattan has a 
bloated excess of cars and bad air, and the residents of UWS will surely
be tickled at the inability to repark their double parked vehicles.  In fact,
keep your damn car in upstate NY, you leech!  :)
