Obviously money expended for gas consumption, more if you're stuck in traffic.

Toll money for the bridges/tunnels ($12 for GW Bridge).

Congestion Pricing below 60th Street -- Lincoln Tunnel in the 40's ($9-23)

Parking Garages
The cost of parking in NYC depends on what part of the city or borough, whether you’re parking on the street or in a garage or parking lot, how long you are parked, and the time of day and day of the week, among other factors. The good news is that metered street parking in Manhattan is broken into zones, and you can find the cost online so you don’t get sticker shock. As of 2022 you will pay between $1.25 to $4.50 for the first hour at a meter, depending on where in the city you are. The average cost of daily parking in New York is $19, although in prime parts of Manhattan you will spend around $50 to park in a garage for a day.

There's a group on the Upper West Side of Manhattan already lobbying for residential on-the-street parking in anticipation of congestion pricing. To avoid the CP fees, many cars will be searching for parking from 60th Street on up.


What I can't figure out is how taxis, Ubers, etc. will charge riders when they cross 60th Street.
