With the resurfacing of Orange Avenue complete, you may have noticed that we have lost a number of parking spaces along our stretch of Orange Avenue. Aside from the expected loss of 5 parking spaces, the newly striped spaces are very roomy, which means even less spaces in total than we were expecting. Sadly, there is little we can do about this. Please take a moment to review our parking page, which guides you through the available parking in our area. We've also created a handy Parking Reference (.pdf) you can print and put in your car!
