http://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-san-francisco-parking-spot-20130613,0,7483852.storySAN FRANCISCO -- Whats eight feet wide and 12 feet deep and sells for $82,000?
As it turns out, a parking spot near San Franciscos AT&T Park.
The enclosed parking spot in a condo building in the South Park neighborhood is creating buzz in a town where the housing market is so hot most things fail to startle.
But San Francisco Chronicle columnist C.W. Nevius reports Thursday the parking deal might be part of a new trend. The spot was sold last week by Sean Sullivan, an agent with Climb Real Estate who had some experience: He sold another one in the same building for $95,000 during San Franciscos last boom.

Or rather, we CAN have nice things, we just can't afford them

Emperor Onehandle would make that his priority.

I wouldn't pay that much for parking if I had Bill Gate's money. Dumbasses should make a phone call and find out what a monthly bus pass costs.

"Trickle-Down" economics is a lie. The wealthy play with their money and the rest of us are screwed.
