Home to this row of cars "seized by the Marshal of the City of New York to satisfy an outstanding judgment", according to stickers on their windows. I had never heard of NYC Marshals before this.
Day 19
Wallabout Street
January 18th, 2012
I'm walking every street in New York City.
This is the counterpoint to my walk across the US. Instead of seeing a million places for just a minute each, I'm going to spend a million minutes exploring just one place. By the time I finish walking every block of every street in all five boroughs, I'll have traveled more than 8,000 miles on foot — all within a single city. Details!

Your donations allow me to keep walking full-time. If you think what I'm doing is valuable and you'd like to offer some support, I would be very grateful. On the other hand, if you think I'm a worthless bum, feel free to email me and tell me to get a job, bozo. Both are excellent options!
That is fascinating. I never heard of fee-based enforcement. The more they work, the more they make.
One must wonder if this is just the parking spot used by only one Marshall.
Need money to fund them 6 figure pensions they get paid….!
That’s because you’re always walking Matt.
I was aware of the Marshals, but I did not know how they got paid.
Scary, and outdated processes as listed on Matt’s link.
