The screen said I had to register in order to pay, so I took the time to put in a username, password and contact info, and I paid the fee - or so I thought. I subsequently received a message from Wells Fargo security saying that a payment had been taken at the garage location for $49.95 to @dcmplc.bi. I spoke with W-F security and confirmed that the payment was not legit. They said they would contact the garage manager and that I would not need to. Now I'm receiving violation notices from an Illinois company for the $2 fee plus a $30 penalty. I went to the parking garage office because I received no contact info. i got there at 3:15 on a weekday and it was closed. The City of Boulder says they have no connection to the garage manager. Park there at your own risk. Jeff Wade, Superior CO.

Just off the campus it's an easy walk and fun energy being among college students (if you're cool with that). Only thing is that you have to pay to park anywhere and the parking police are crazy so be prepared for that.

Plenty of nice stores here. It's not exactly a fun place to be. You'd come here if you want something specific, but it doesn't seem like a place where you would want to hang out or walk around.

This has always been one of my favorite shopping centers in Boulder. I have used it regularly for…read moreover 40 years. Of course, first and foremost has been its main anchor, the venerable store for nearly everything from nuts and bolts to kitchenware and paint as well as animal supples and tools, lawnmowers and lightbulbs, sporting goods and clothing. You get the point. McGuckins! With absolutely wonderful staff and management. See my review for this great place. Another current favorite is Rincon Argentino, the best empanadas around and luckily for me, they are not fried, so much healthier and authentic to have the high heat baked style. See my review of them for specifics. My husband still uses Aspen Eyewear, another longtime favorite though I cannot, sadly needing a medical supplier but since the year that they opened, they have been our mainstay for glasses. See that review too. Grandrabbits, still the best wonderful carefully curated toy store in town. Though unfortunately we do not need them as much as in the past, as not only have our children gotten too old for most items, even our grandchildren have gotten beyond most of their range. But always nice for that special gift for any child. I used PakMail just the other day. Great for specialty shipping needs (which I did a few times) as well as supplies for do-it your self types like me. And though I have not been recently to Wood Grain Bagels, the French Cafe or Great Harvest Bread, Vitality Bowls, Brewing Market, they are appear to be thriving. Same for Sprouts. Also, Osakas, for Japanese fare which opened just before the pandemic but was enjoyable before as well as recently. Glad they could make it through the last few tough years. Check those reviews too. Sadly we lost a really great place at the beginning of the pandemic, wonderful Zolo Grill where we ate countless meals since its opening back in the mid 90's. But Big Red F Group still maintains several other options here in Boulder as well as elsewhere. They sure have grown. The old Boulder Ski Deals has been replaced by Epic Mountain Sports which I have not had a need to use, but Boulder Ski Deals was great for many years for some of our needs. There are a few empty spaces in the shopping center from the businesses recently gone, some we used, some we did not. But I am sure the management of this center will find suitable additions as times improve. And there is lots of parking unless there is a major holiday.Then, come early, in a smaller vehicle, carpool, and be creative.

Don't want to leave your beloved bike behind? Affix it to the outside/front of the bus. The contraption looks quite complicated but with a little help or experimentation you're sure to get the hang of it pretty quickly. Some of the most convenient rides I've been most thankful for are to Nederland for Frozen Dead Guy Days (FDGD). Nothing beats relaxing on the bus ride up & back, particularly when the roads are a mess from the snow (that happened my first year to FDGD). Who wants to mess with the parking and risking harm to others if you opt to imbibe at this annual event? The seats are comfy and adjustable. Most rides to Denver (FF1) that I've taken have allowed me my own set of seats with room to stretch out and read or just relax. The drivers are often friendly and happy to strike up a chat (it's been a habit of mine since grade school to befriend the bus drivers). There's a help/police desk inside the station aside from the purchase window (where you can buy passes etc.) These gents were so kind helping me navigate the multipack vending machine inside the station. To note there is also an electronic vending machine just outside the doors to the station (behind the benches) for day passes etc. both this machine as well as the indoor vending machine take credit cards. If you have a few days before your travels you can also purchase many passes online and they will mail them out to you. Discount passes are also available. Check out the RTD website for more info. The bathroom is typically clean and great for a quick stop before the bus ride (as I haven't been on any buses with toilets). Overall convenient, eco friendly, relaxing, and affordable way to travel from Boulder to DIA/Denver I've experienced. The main improvement I'd like to see is outlets in the bus to charge phone/iPad etc.

Hour and a half later: Great meal, starting to rain my grandma and I decide to wait across the street while my aunt extricates the car from the garage. Hour and 45 minutes later: My aunt finally calls me and tells me that she is almost out of the garage, after being stuck on the 2nd floor down. Yes, that is right, almost 2 hours to get out of the parking garage and to get the hell out of Boulder. 2 hours of my life wasted. The only upside is that my grandma and I got to spend quality time talking while waiting for the car. In the future I will spend whatever time necessary to find a street parking spot to avoid such a hassle.

Funky funky building (and by that I do not mean that it smells). Found myself here on several…read moreoccasions, certainly not the easiest place to locate in town. Nestled behind the Sussex One building (visible from 30th) has its own parking garage. To note there are 3-4 spots outside the garage for oversize vehicles. Think the garage has marred many a roof rack in its day (I've seen at least one car try to squeeze through). The entrance to get into the building is also in the garage so if you are on foot or on bike be sure to head straight inside. There are several bike racks peppered around the garage just be sure to remember your lock. When you enter the building at the garage level you'll find a list of businesses & locations as well as an elevator should you choose to forego the stairs. On the 2nd floor is a very interesting garden which was designed by the architect in the 70's (met a friend of his today in fact). There are bathrooms on both the 2nd (northwest side of building near the hair salon) and 3rd floor (in the north east corner). The businesses contained within vary quite a bit. From physical therapists, counselors, Pilates studio, publishers, healers (various massage and acupuncturists), fishing company, hair salon, and background check services. The vending machine also offers quite a selection (you'll pass it on your way to the bathroom on the 2nd floor). Loads of ordinary cookies and crackers as well as $2.50 Justin's' peanut butter cups, cans of Yerba mate, coconut water, and my favorite unique item a salmon lunch kit (no, I have and will not be trying this). If you find yourself there at lunch you may find yourself a bit out of luck if you have to hear something up or want to wash a dish or two as there is no communal kitchen area. Interesting place worth checking out, particularly if you are looking for a healer (I recommend Mind Body Wisdom).
