parking meter

The headstone of Gordon "Gordy" Burdick in Florida, Massachusetts, is a parking meter that reads "Time Expired." Burdick wasn't the only one with the idea.

Here's what the City of New Bedford has to say about paying those parking meters.

Downtown New Bedford has undergone a much needed renaissance over the past few years that has made visiting that area of the city much more fun and interesting.   You'll now find some great restaurants and taverns, museums and shops.   There's a new downtown campus for Bristol Community College as well.

Too many times you've been in the Downtown New Bedford area, or any city for that matter, and you look for a parking space, fish around in your pockets looking for quarters, and feed that parking meter right?
