About 4 miles from the waterfront to rt.440. My usual commute involved taking the light rail from exchange place to west side ave, but sometimes they run late or extra early, causing me to miss my usual time and wind up late to work. At least with the car, my commute is more stable.

It was given to me from a coworker. And primarily I got it to commute to and from work, as I have to get up pretty early(4am) to be here on time. Busses don't run that early, light rail can sometimes be unreliable, and Uber gets expensive.

Yeah, I hadn't done complete research on the parking situation around where I live, so I only knew what I saw on signs and such, but didn't know what they entirely meant. Hadnt thought about it much. Poor planning on my part I admit, which is why I came to ask. Thankfully someone else had given me some advice already and I've got plans to hit up the parking Authority later today

Yeah thats what I mean. I had checked online and saw how long it takes to get one. The site even recommends going in person to get one asap.

But thank you for your help. As said, I'm very new to car ownership and parking was the last thing I needed to take care of.

My building used to have a parking lot, but it got torn up and converted into the preschool that occupies Haus 25. My building manager says they're "trying" to negotiate with the other building for shared space in the garage but nothing has come of it yet. This has been ongoing for months since construction on Haus 25 finished
