In order to make room for street cleaning, parked cars on some streets must be removed on designated days under the alternate side parking (ASP) policy in New York City. This usually happens in different neighborhoods in Manhattan, The Bronx, Queens, and Brooklyn once or twice a week. This regulation is crucial to keeping the city clean.
Go outside a bit early to see what people are doing because some streets are not like others. There are three possible outcomes: the sweeper may never arrive, you may be forced to round the block (yes, you run the danger of losing your spot), or you may decide to stop and reverse course.
Just remember that there aren’t really any regulations other than that you have to move to make room for the sweeper; if you leave a position empty, someone else may take it.
