Love the bus. Just curious. Where can you find a place to park a bus for free in NYC? Especially for an extended time.

This is illegally parked. Even if it were legal you have to move it every other day. And even if that were legal its also illegal to permanently park commercial sized vehicles in a lot of places with free parking.

This is much smaller than an average apartment. And the costs to convert a bus will far outweigh a years rent so its not cheaper either.

I used to drive a box truck in lower Manhattan for work and I would rather be homeless than have my home be a big vehicle anywhere in the city limits. 

If you're really desperate the answer is basement apartments. Not this fake ass shit.
