Default From what I was told

When I was around the area in April; parking will be far more expensive than it was in Cleveland. That is also a function of being downtown and in an area which includes the Harbor and Camden Yards; etc. Downtown parking does cost more. However; similar to Chicago; if you are willing to walk a reasonable distance there is either public transportation OR cheaper parking than at the site. Those choices are up to you.

The location is about as good as one is going to get on the East Coast for accessibility so I think it is worth a shot to try a new area and see where we go. We are near Washingon, Baltimore and only 2 hours or so from Philly and about 4 hours from NY.

I will say this is a much better overall location than Atlantic City was on the East Coast. I will also say; as I said a while back; that parking costs are what they are; but ADMISSION costs can be scaled back for the average collector. A varied pricing structure; while a bit of a pain; might be the best way to help both the advanced collector with not as much time or the beginning collector showing up at noon on Saturday.
