Trains/parking
Use the parking APP Spot Hero if you are going to drive and park in the city. I am walking distance to the Blue line and one can easily connect to all the lines and/or take trains downtown or to the airports. Use your street smarts. Do not invite robbery by sitting by a door with your phone loosely in your hand! Do not use late at night or alone.
