necrontyr Posted September 22, 2014 Report Share Posted September 22, 2014 I'd suggest parking at the mall lot across the park. It's free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted September 22, 2014 Report Share Posted September 22, 2014 I'd suggest parking at the mall lot across the park. It's free. Win! Will it be obvious where we're going? I'm gonna need to drop some stuff off before I go park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottshoemaker Posted September 22, 2014 Report Share Posted September 22, 2014 Just watch out for mall security, they do write parking tickets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted September 22, 2014 Report Share Posted September 22, 2014 Just watch out for mall security, they do write parking tickets. Do they tow? Cause I don't ever go to LS, so a parking ticket doesn't bother me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VonVilkee Posted September 22, 2014 Report Share Posted September 22, 2014 I just decided to add valet service to the room. We are carpooling so splitting parking out four ways wasn't so bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Mr. Bigglesworth Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 This is Portland. Parking is never free Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VonVilkee Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 Much like Seattle I expected it so was not surprised. I'm gonna be such a pain to those parking peoples. I'm paying for a service so a service it will be! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Trainer Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 Be aware of the Mall parking. As stated, tickets suck. You could walk into the mall, and come out another entrance...of course drop your stuff off first, helps if you have a buddy that can offload your stuff while you go park...but yes, the Mall is not 'official' parking, heh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 But the mall tickets are just 'mall tickets' right? Not really tickets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Trainer Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 Dunno, I would imagine they are actual tickets. Else I imagine they would TOW, because they couldn't enforce it. Not sure though... Overnight parking will get towed from there though...cinemas too. I read something about closing around 9pm, so late night gaming could get you towed...

Torg Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 i'll just do the parking garage… one a block away isn't too bad. Can't seem to force myself to try a park and ride lol -d p.s. I am not against car pooling - (sat/sunday) I will be coming from the south side of town - (i-5 … on at wilsonville) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PumpkinHead Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 What is that giant parking lot across the park for? Is it open for use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 Also, not having gone to this location before, is it going to be obvious where we're going and such? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Trainer Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 The parking next to the park is the Cinema/Theater parking lot. Same thing, overnight or later than they're opened and it could get towed. But how do they enforce, not sure...never had issues in either, but I also don't do it often.

scottshoemaker Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 What is that giant parking lot across the park for? Is it open for use? That is the Cinema/Mall parking. And they do tow. I used to work in the office building kiity-corner from the lot. Folks would use the lot for parking and jump on the Max, security would be right behind them writing tickets. If you are there during "shopping" hours do what I used to, park in the lot close to the mall, make like you are going in the mall, (cross the street, etc) then be inconspicous on your way to the hotel. For any late night stuff I'd park in a garage. The park doesn't foster a very high class of person. I missed a drive by shooting by about an hour.

Romans832 Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 Dam, my bro and I use to park there all the time and no one have a crap. I've jumped on Max a million times while parking at Lloyd. He'll that's how I did ALL my interviews in Portland. Lloyd, Max, interview, Max, Lloyd. I'm liking the idea of drop our stuff off and then go park at Lloyd and walk into the mall leaving a different area. $20/day is ludicrous 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fluger Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 But, serious question here, the mall isn't 24/7, wouldn't they notice cars parked there overnight and tow? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fluger Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 Is there a park and ride that doesn't cost anything that I can park my car at and take the max into the city? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 Is there a park and ride that doesn't cost anything that I can park my car at and take the max into the city? Up by the airport, at the least, you can park near Ikea and take the max in. Probably a couple closer in in Vancouver on the 5 side. Also, definitely don't leave your car there (Lloyd) overnight, that's suspicious. :) I'm probably going to park there just because I'll be gone before the theatre / mall closes.
