MixedParking & transit tradeoffs
The official system offers many lots but requires attention to the assigned route and walk. Transit is possible, though less direct than at rail-adjacent downtown parks.
03
MixedHeat, shade & seat choice
Summer heat and direct sun require advance planning. Shade changes with game time and section, so check the exact location rather than relying on a broad side-of-park rule.
