Traveler advice
Getting around
Downtown is walkable from our house, but also car-friendly
While we live in a more residential neighborhood, accessing bars, restaurants, shops and a downtown scent is convenient and walkable. However, if you prefer to drive, there are several parking garages and street parking available (use ParkMobile for ease).
