The so-called City That Works will have to work a little harder to stay productive in 2010. Yes, the already tight parking situation at the massive Metro-North stop in Stamford just got a bit tigher, reports StationStops, as a building project to commence in 2010 will see 800 spots get shut down for two years.
That was Topic A at the Connecticut Commuter Rail Council meeting last night.
SS reports:
In general, the theme of how Stamford commuters should prepare to deal with this situation was to look for parking at Greenwich and Glenbrook (!!?) (sorry that last line just made me spit-take coffee all over my keyboard!)
I love how the three photos offered on Stamford’s Wikipedia page depict the following:
1. Stamford’s Metro-North station
2. Stamford’s Metro-North station
3. World Wrestling headquarters
The reason that there are only photos of the Metro-North station and WWE HQ on the Stamford Wiki page is that those are the only unique Stamford sights you can photograph without actually getting off I-95 and entering the city (which would require a parking space).
