PARKING:
1. There are metered lots behind the buildings on our side of
the street. They cost 25 cents for 15 minutes. There are also meters
along various side streets.
2. There is a parking garage on Copeland St., which is halfway
between Negley and Aiken off Walnut Street. It has an hourly rate.
3. There is free parkling along the residential streets
that run parallel to Walnut, but there is a two-hour maximum limit between 11am
and 6pm weekdays (Saturdays noon to 6pm).
*Please note that Walnut Street is a
busy shopping district. It is a great place to spend the day shopping and
eating, but parking can be difficult, especially on weekends and in the
summer. We ask that you keep this in mind when planning your trip.
