This is right up my, er, uh, alley. The steepest grade in Manhattan, Duffy's Hill on Lexington Avenue between East 102d and East 103 Streets, is 12.6%, and the car's hill appears steeper, but not by much. I do not believe it exceeds 15% [ Note:  Filbert Street in San Francisco has a grade of 31.5%.]
