Expert: Sharon Woodhouse Date: 3/21/2004 Subject: Parking near Union Station
Question I will be driving to Chicago. Finding LaSalle Street and Union Station will not be a problem, but I need an affordable and safe location to park my van from March 29, 2004 to April 6, 2004. Also, I would appreciate a direct number to the Amtrak Station if it is listed in the phone book. Thank you for your help.
Answer Chuck,
The Chicago Amtrak station number is 312/655-2101. Sorry I can't help you with the parking situation--don't have a car and am not familiar with parking downtown. I'm sure the station would be able to advise you, though.
Good luck!
