Hey Guys,

Just curious what the parking situation is like since I am working on
trying to do more of a scheduled visit. Last time I parked in the
garage across from Dinosaur BBQ and I was fine for the day, but not
sure how long that will last ;-)

I called the parking office twice and left a message, but no call
back. Boo.

Thoughts?

Jace Richardson (@obfuscode) and I are carpooling down on Wednesday
for the day and then headed to Build Guild.

Every time that I've called the parking number, I've been directed to voicemail. I don't think that it's taken more than a day before getting a response, however.

Hey Blain!
  Looking forward to having you back soon. If anyone is interested in getting a parking pass for one of the city lots, they run $50 a month and are basically an insurance policy against getting parking tickets. Please see this page http://troyny.gov/parking.html You need to go to City Hall 1776 Sixth Ave Troy, New York 12180  to purchase a pass.

  If you want to go the free on-street parking route, be advised of which streets have 2 hour parking, etc. The map attached was created by Agora's Office Manager during a Hack-a-thon! 

  Thanks, 
     Clarke

Blain - I should update the site but we're planning to make the space free until further notice, but focusing in on developers and designers for now.  We never really ended up getting non-techy interest anyways.  Fee free to circulate this :)

Good to know Brian. The guy thats coming with me is also a techie guy
so he "passes the test".

Thanks for the map Clarke, I called the number on that website and the
woman had no clue about daily passes or paid parking. The 2-hour limit
is crazy and surprised none of the lots have a person collecting daily
rate fees.

I will wing it ha.

I called Brown's and the slightly less than helpful guy who answered
the phone says he personally parks behind Browns and hasn't had a
problem. He gave a shaky "no" when I asked if the Waterfront lot next
to him was free. So I guess we can just park behind Browns (if we're
going to get there super early) and walk down to the office - that way
the car will be close when we're done with Build Guild and we won't
have to worry about finding more parking at 5pm.

Looking forward to meeting you guys and checking out the space.

Good to know.  I had asked my employer if they were interested in subsidizing my membership, but never really got an answer from them. :D

Anyway, regardless, I'm planning to come visit soon...
