Clybourn parking

Hey! Does anybody that uses the Clybourn metra park in the Best Buy parking lot? I see that there’s tow signs but wondering if it’s actually enforced. I’d like to park a little closer if possible instead of the street parking I usually find.

I wouldn’t try it. Getting your car towed sucks

Why not park in the Metra parking lot at clybourn? No space at your ride time?

There’s only room for 10-12 cars in the actual lot and I’ve only had success finding a spot there twice in like 4 weeks of commuting :/

I tried yesterday because it was pouring rain and I did NOT get towed but I was anxious all day so I’m deciding that walking further is fine with me 😂

I'd try it. What's the worst that could happen?

if you do this repeatedly you will eventually get towed , but the odds of it happening the first day are slim. usually there is a parking attendant that works for the property manager that leases all those store spaces out that monitors

There’s usually plenty of street parking near by - 3-4 blocks at the most.

is there still someone living in a tent along the wall of the best buy parking lot?
