Reply to comment by umbligado in If you were going to get a membership at a gym/art center/makerspace etc.. (somewhere that you would go 1-2 times per week) Would you be deterred from signing up if there was only street parking nearby? Located in Riverside/Locust Point by hyperr129

That’s a really tough spot for parking - just a personal anecdote but I was trying to go to a bar over there a month ago and after circling the block 5-6 times I ended up leaving since I couldn’t find parking. I believe a lot of that area is not part of RPP permitting areas so it is fair game for anyone. But it’s mostly residential so very little turnover after 6 pm

That’s super helpful info. Do you remember what time/day you were there and had to circle?

Classes would most likely begin at 6 pm ish so if that’s a bad time for parking it wouldn’t be ideal

Saturday evening, probably around 7.

I used to live in that area and I usually had luck parking close if I got home by 6.

If it’s near metered spots like on light and Charles you should have a lot more luck. Those are all free after 8 pm and are much more available than the spots on fort.

Most sane people who live in that area understand you aren’t going to be right in front of your house every day though
