Please do not park in the basement area, which is reserved for the Marriott Valets & they lease those spaces. That area is indicated with Red signs & there are numbers painted on the parking spots. There are also Brown Signs on the walls marked Reserved M-F 8am to 5pm please do not park in those spaces.

Be sure to take good care of your ticket, you must have your ticket to exit. Most parkers who are taking a train out of the area prefer to leave the ticket in their vehicle.

Make sure your vehicle is secure, & there are no visible valuables that can be seen through the windows. This is good advice no matter where you park a vehicle.

If you have a highly sensitive anti-theft car alarm system please have it adjusted, car alarms can drain your battery if sounding for days because of vibration within the parking deck.
