+
+         <p>Street parking is available around our building but be
+         sure to read signs closely because our guests have been
+         ticketed. The closest free street parking is on Troll
+         Ave. It is two hour parking during the day but is
+         unrestricted overnight and on Sundays. Parking on
+         35<sup>th</sup> is generally free except between 8pm and
+         12am and the signs can be hard to see. There are two
+         self-serve pay lots on either side of the building in the
+         alley between 34<sup>th</sup> and 35<sup>th</sup> but read
+         the signs carefully before you park because some of the
+         space is shared with businesses during the week.  If you
+         contact us well in advance, we might be able to get
+         permission to use an unused spot within our building from
+         the building manager.</p>
