Its all down town!

Staying right near Congress & Michigan next Saturday night. Could take the Metra, but figure it would be easier on the weekend to drive to the city. Anybody know of a reasonably priced lot near that intersection? I don't mind a walk, but I don't want to park a mile-and-a-half away either.

Would be getting down there around 2-3pm Saturday, and leaving whenever we wake up on Sunday. Before the Bears game for sure. I see some online that are like $30-40, and some that are $6 but I don't want to park in a cagey place like Jiffy Park either.

Thanks for the real replies, and keep the fake ones funny!

Clark and Harrison garage is like 8 or Ten dollars on weekends and its like 4 blocks,

It might be only 12 hours at a time though in which case you'd have to make a drunken walk to reup.

Im going over there in an hour, Ill check

Which is why he's so sure they will be leaving before the game.

I'll just step out of the way and let Frank have a good time with our collective oversight ...

Weekend rate in the indoor CBOE garage (Congress and LaSalle/Financial) is only $6 or $7.

I'll never forget the time I had a interview for a job about 10 years ago in the CNA building (the big red one)....was running late and had to park on Wabash...it was something like 30 bucks for two hours. And I didn't get the job.

Can also have your parents call downtown and reserve a spot for you in the big scary city.

You are welcome. Used the site a few times. Always a great deal.
