Parking
A relatively large metered parking lot sits across
from the Arlington Courthouse. A massive underground garage exists
underneath three large buildings along Clarendon Blvd and stretches underneath the
AMC movie complex. The Courthouse, Jail, Police Station and most other important Arlington
County administrative functions occur within a two block area. While it is one of the
safest areas of the county, your chances of getting ticketed are higher here than anywhere
outside of the District .
Use the garage after 5 PM and on weekends (it is
FREE during these times) when the spaces above ground near Summers are
filled. Just make sure you allow yourself a little extra time to park the car and emerge
from the bowels of the complex. The lower levels usually do not fill up on weekends, but
weekdays until 5 PM are reserved for the businesses that inhabit the complex. Take
your bearings and walk to Summers in time NOT to miss any early goals.
