"I've got an old mule and her name is Sal /Fifteen years on the Erie Canal /She's a good old worker and a good old pal / Fifteen years on the Erie Canal /We've hauled some barges in our day / Filled with lumber, coal, and hay /And every inch of the way we know. From Albany to Buffalo." (- Thomas S. Allen, "Fifteen Years on the Erie Canal")
Having covered every inch of the nearby Erie Canal, that ole mule definitely knew its way around North Tonawanda, New York. This famous landmark runs along the citys southern and eastern borders.

Parking can be at a premium in some cities where spaces are challenging to find. Some North Tonawanda apartments offer parking options, either outside in a common area or within a private garage.
Ask about the stipulations around the parking. Those may include how many guests are allowed and where tenants park.
Some apartments may only allow parking in front of your own unit. Guest parking may be in a common area for up to one person.
If parking is scarce, look around the area before you sign a lease. Ample street parking in a neighborhood championed for its safety is probably fine. However, it’s probably not worth signing a lease if it means battling for daily parking for you and your guests.
Research whether you need a city permit to park in the neighborhood. Look into the associated costs and what to do about visitors who need parking.
Some tenants prefer garage parking near their units. However, an open-air lot may prove cheaper.
Keep in mind that the cost of wear and tear from parking outside can add up. It may be less expensive, in the long run, to look for an apartment with garage parking.
