Visitor & Driver Tips
Because 8th Avenue and surrounding side streets experience substantial pedestrian foot traffic and delivery trucks during late morning and early evening hours, approach slowly and prepare your vehicle turn onto 61st Street ahead of time. Weekend lunch hours—especially between 11:00 AM and 2:30 PM—coincide with peak dim sum dining rushes, so arriving early is recommended to secure immediate space without queuing. Keep your claim ticket in a safe place, and ensure all personal belongings and valuables are removed from sight before handing keys over to the garage attendant.
