"We are thrilled to expand our partnership with Stonehenge and offer Maven+ services to an extended network of residents," said Julia Steyn, vice president, Urban Mobility, General Motors. "In an urban setting like New York City, we know that convenience is key, and with Maven+, residents will have real-time, on-demand access and a completely personalized car-sharing experience in their own building." In addition to having access to cars, users can also park in any Icon Parking Garage throughout the city for free. Prices start at $9/hour or $75/day and cars range from small to large vehicles.
