Depends on where and when you want to park. If you want to park in Manhattan during working hour, be prepared to pay $20-30 per hour. But if it is not workday, you might get some lower rate. You can also get some overnight discount or early bird discount. If you park in other boroughs, such as Queens and Brooklyn, you should be able to find street parking. I will not recommend you driving in Manhattan. Parking is a disaster. Other places should be fine. I live in New York, not sure about other big cities.
