    Default Parking at the U of C

    Where do you guys usually park, since McMahon stadium is full now and im to cheap to pay 250 a month for campus parking.

    Im assuming there has to be other options to park your car around the U of C?

    Thanks

    Campus parking is far from $250 a month. Find someone to sell you a permit to park in front of their house.

    Do they charge $5 at lot 10 now too? I noticed they increased lot 11 but not sure about 10.

    Art Parkade is 450 a semester + transponder.

    Open lots are generally $80~ a month.

    Having a permit is worth it if you like to be at school right before classes and/or have huge gaps in between classes - in/out privileges, and you can park in any lot after 3:30. I use to show up @ school 5 minutes before classes and still make it on time. Of course when I was in school Art was only $500 + transponder for 8 months, and open lots were $60 a month.

    Having a open parking lot annual pass = same price as parking in lot 11 or 12 (whatever the pay open lot is).

    I had a art parkade pass for 2 years until the price kept going up, and I realized that annual permits had better benefits. Art is a pretty far walk (inside) from anywhere.

    IIRC only the first few 'rows' in both lots 10 and 11 have plugin outlets. Otherwise your SOL.

    10 and 11 do not have plug ins if I recall correctly, or maybe the few close spots but you'll have to be there real early.

    Use to be packed by 730 including the overflow.
    Then they put in $3 charge.
    Pretty sure you can still snag spots at 9.

    The best place to park is behind the TD bank at the mall right near the school (across the bridge). Seems like a far walk but I never got a ticket and it was great for the two years I went there.

    wrong.

    I was at harvey's this week, and some fagget came in and starting yelling at my buddy cause his car was parked at harveys. He stated "you better not leave your car here after your done eating, or your ganna get a ticket". He screamed this across the room (front door to the wait counter). The harveys manager was pretty ticked off at that guy and gave us free burger tickets

    After leaving the food joint, i saw about 10 cars between TD and london drugs with tickets on their window.

    Just noticed it this week, but they now sell permits for lot 59 (the one near lot 10, about a 2 minute walk towards the Children's hospital) for those interested. I believe it was $316+GST for the semester pass.
