    How many parking spaces does Providence Park have?

    I think parking right next to the stadium is less of an issue when the temperature is 5o + degrees.

    What part of "on site" parking did you missunderstand?

    Again Providence Park has a unique access to max and it works well with a number of parking options because it’s directly on both the Blue and red lines. Zidell yards does have the Street Car but as I stated it’s very slow and probably would need larger cars. Some improvements could help greatly I’m sure.

    Yes, but how many parking spaces does Providence Park have? I don't know the answer. What is it?

    They could add a marina like the one at Riverplace with a restaurant.

    As it is, it's about 1/2 mile from the current marina to the baseball site.

    About a 10-minute walk along the river.

    And I said *outside* of those?

    It's not enough parking if we're being honest

    I'm skeptical of the Ziddell site, but I really hope it somehow works out, because it seems they've exhausted all of the other site possibilities.

    Orange line goes right there and connects to all others.

    I guess you are agreeing with me. That is my point. However being truthful the Moda having 3000 spaces covers quite a bit. You got to figure about 2-3 people per car. Not sure many go to a game alone?
    The original point was that both the Moda and Providence Park are right on Max lines. The Moda has the Red, Blue and Yellow lines running right in front of it. This new stadium has only the street car and that system would need to be upgraded to say the least.

    I actually thought that was yellow line but yes. That is exactly my point.

    Yellow Line turns into the Orange Line Downtown. The Yellow and Orange Lines are essentially the same line.

    This is Pier 17 in downtown Manhattan. It would be cool to have something like this on the south side of the Ross Island Bridge.
