***ECLIPSE PARKING INFORMATION***

For those from outside the area with questions regarding tomorrow's "Total Eclipse of the Park" event and vehicle parking, here's what you need to know:

😎There is a great deal of on-street parking in close proximity to our shuttle stops. The map of shuttle stops is available here:

https://maps.watertown-ny.gov/portal/apps/experiencebuilder/experience/?id=f03198d7fa4c44279fb0b6e946b69310

😎Additionally, if you wanted to park in a public lot and then Uber/Lyft to one of the shuttle stops (or a place close by) that is an option as well. Here is a map of the Downtown public parking lots:

😎There are also number of other lots, which aren’t public, but likely will NOT be restricting parking for visitors.

😎Lastly, if you were to park in one of the Downtown lots, it's about a 15-minute or so walk to one of the shuttle stops. Public parking lots, again, are outlined here:
