Avoid the Orange Cones

With all the downtown construction and exciting growth in our city, getting around can be a bit tricky. Allow extra time when coming to enjoy one of our concerts and leave plenty of time for parking. Because of construction right around the Civic Center, some of your favorite parking spots may be gone. You still may see an orange cone or two, but below are the easiest routes:
