Visitor & Driver Tips
When approaching the center northbound or southbound along 1300 East, maintain moderate speeds and watch for turning vehicles entering adjacent retail lots. While customer parking is typically complimentary for on-site visitors, observe all posted property signage designating reserved tenant bays or time restrictions to prevent unauthorized parking enforcement. During winter snowstorms, exercise caution around lot perimeters where snow removal equipment creates windrows, and utilize shaded spots away from building roof overhangs to avoid falling icicles or snow slides.
