kstrom Posted February 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 Do you have a specific location in mind? Have you won/purchased a hotel yet for your upcoming Washington DC stay?After several days trying I finally succeeded in getting a PL hotel for 2/15-2/17. (I'm posting the PL bid as a separate topic.) The total duration of the stay is 2/13-2/17, all in Dupont Circle region. The DC Metro site that says there will be delays on the metro that weekend, so I think I want to park fairly close to Dupont Circle rather than in the 'burbs and then take the subway into DC. http://www.wmata.com/about/met_news/story.cfm?ID=1664Within this general area, we are happy to move the car to take advantage of savings. - KstromPS Here's the general DC metro website. It has very easy to use, intuitive interactive features:http://www.wmata.com/ Link to comment

JSW999 Posted September 7, 2013 Report Share Posted September 7, 2013 HiIf you are visiting a resident of DC they can obtain a visiter pass for you free of charge which permits you to park for free in the zoned areas. I've attached the link for more informationhttp://dc.gov/DC/DDOT/Services/Parking+Services/Visitor+Parking+Passes Link to comment
dahammer Posted September 14, 2013 Report Share Posted September 14, 2013 I recently received a $100 parking ticket while in DC. With the blocked off streets, one way streets, turn lanes that seem to appear from nowhere, the "grid and spoke" layout of the streets (many intersections have streets coming together at acute angles), the red light cameras, and soon to come, stop light cameras, driving the streets of DC is a white knuckle experience. I would much rather drive in any part of the Metro NYC area than in DC. Next time I'm taking the metro. Link to comment
