We were at the convention center for FanExpo Dallas to meet Parker Posey (she was a dream)…read more The convention center is spacious and with the set up for the expo, there was still plenty of space to walk around. A lot of times these conventions are set up so that the hundreds of attendees are packed in an unsafe manner. I'm glad this wasn't the case. It's a modern and clean convention center. The bathrooms were incredibly clean considering all of the foot traffic. Lots of knowledgeable employees who helped make the visit a good experience.

No #s painted on the spots so I just took a picture of my lic. plate like I've done at the Ft. Worth stockyards, downtown OKC, etc. An employee was at the booth and offered to help me enter all the necessary info, which I appreciated. Several people had began lining up behind me. The computer had me swipe my c/c and below is the receipt. Those behind me were as startled as I was! I understand "buyer beware ", and I'm sure there was probably cheaper parking close by, so lesson learned. I just want to make others aware that may fall into the same trap.

This lot is very cheap. You pay $3.00 for 12 hours (the parking meters downtown charge $3 for 2…read morehours). However, the spaces are small, the pavement is in bad shape, and the lot can fill up by 11 a.m.

A free community event that allows for cars and the bustling pace of downtown to co-exist with…read morecreativity and downright, chilled-out parking spots re-purposed into activity spaces needs to happen more often. Any organization/business/individual can occupy a parking spot on Main Street downtown to do with what they like. When the opportunity presented itself to Yelp, I instantly was drawn the idea as it brings the community together in a free, interactive, and creative way. But when I was placed next to the Nasher and a live poetry set, I was even more in love with the concept. My parking spot neighbor had a make shift living room built with actual grass as the foundation while a book swap sponsored by D Magazine and the Dallas Public Library. My only wish is if the city allowed this to happen more often and longer than just a Friday afternoon.

What a dream for a new urbanism nerd like me!…read more On this warm sunny September day, Pegasus Plaza and a portion of Main Street were invaded by the wonks behind PARKing Day Dallas. The human side of the street were beautifully barricaded from the traffic rush by lush planters and shrubbery to create an urban oasis for all to enjoy. These lush barriers created "booths" with a variety of activities from a drum circle, displays by the Nasher, D Magazine , a kid-sized soccer field, and of course the lovely Yelp ambassador, Frances G. Main Street is truly the heart of Downtown yet this makeshift setup brought it even more life and brought the street down to a human scale. I recently visited Toronto where throughout the city center, setups like this are permanent and well received. I can only hope that the word gets out on PARKing Day so that it can spread throughout the city and maybe one day become permanent,

Absolutely the worst parking garage on the planet. A complete scam and total nightmare…read more There is ONLY ONE exit gate, and it keeps malfunctioning, opening and closing for no reason. After midnight, between 12:30 AM and 3:00 AM, we were literally imprisoned inside the garage with no way to exit. No staff, no help button, no phone number, NOTHING. Despite the posted rate being $16 for 2 hours, we were illegitimately charged a full-day parking fee because we were forced to stay inside against our will. That is beyond unacceptable -- it feels like theft. This place is dangerous, poorly designed, and completely mismanaged. No restroom, no emergency plan, no accountability. DO NOT PARK HERE. EVER. Save yourself the stress, time, and money.

Once you get off the elevators you're greeted with a little gift shop that also has snacks and alcoholic beverages. You can stay inside and take in the view or go outside. I was surprised that there really wasn't more robust netting and you can definitely drop your phone from the top so be careful. There wasn't a ton to do up there so I would say a longer visit would be 30 min max unless you partake in the snacks and beverages.

Upon check-in, we were guided to an area where they took complimentary souvenir photos of our group before sending us upstairs. Once upstairs, you have the option to purchase printed photos, or they can send you a link to download your photos digitally. This was a great stop to take in the beautiful views of the city before dinner. They also have a small gift shop with souvenirs to browse. Overall, it was a nice experience and a great addition to our evening.

This felt like the Portland of Dallas…read more Since everyone else is going to talk about the funky, eclectic, communal and hippie vibe, and the 60 independent businesses, I will mention some history: 1. The neighborhood was nicknamed "The Devil's Back Porch" back in the 1920s. I hope that was not a reference to his butt. 2. This was one of the busiest streetcar stops in all of Dallas in the 1930s, which is the reason the shops are close together. 3. The restaurant Paradiso is L shaped because it was built around century-old trees. 4. Bonnie (of Bonnie and Clyde) worked as a waitress in this area before her crime spree began. Rumor has it she needed money to afford the $8 slices of pie at Emporium Pies. Only three things sucked: 1) Parking is difficult on weekends. 2) Cops are everywhere, so don't jaywalk. 3) The people with clipboards asking you to donate to blue whale abortions or whatever are aggressive.
