去年，在波士顿，前后式的露天双车位拍卖了56万美元。买家就住在旁边，已经有了3车库，这两个车位是请客时用的。

BOSTON — If you thought housing prices were spiraling up again, consider the lowly parking space.

A slab of asphalt, a couple of white lines, it often comes as part and parcel of a home purchase without too much thought. But in cities like Boston, parking spaces are at a premium, and prices have been climbing for years. In certain neighborhoods, the price of a home can go up $100,000 or $200,000 if parking is included, which it often is not, only adding pressure to the supply and demand crunch that drives prices up further.

She told The Boston Globe that the auction was a rare chance to acquire more parking for guests and workers, though she did not expect the bidding to run so high.

Mr. Cohen, the broker, said he would have expected the spaces to go for about $300,000 — not top dollar, because the first car has to be moved out to move the second.2 X$ u0 ^- S- Q0 A: E1 d+ k9 U# M; S

Still, he said, in high-value markets, parking prices are driven by supply and demand and wealthy people will pay extraordinary prices for a nearby spot, for the convenience.

“It’s hard for most of us to get our brains around this,” he said. “But this is a portal into the world of people who are playing by different rules than most of us. Boston is a Brahmin place where reason doesn’t go out the door so easily. |

富人的行为我们穷人就不用去理解了，前段时间还看到个豪宅，只有2间卧室，却有6个卫生间。据说也是为了方便开party的客人
