Event Location & Parking
Event Location:
Palmer Park
910 Merrill Plaissance
Detroit, MI 48203
Parking Information:
Area 1: This area has about 30 parking spots but it will be closed well before the race starts and will not open until after the course is clear. It will also be used almost exclusively for volunteers and race staff. Available spots may be used by athletes.
Area 2: This area has about 20 parking spots and is a very short walk to race registration.
Area 3: This narrow lot near the training building can be used for parking and has about 25 additional spots.
Area 4: This much larger lot is .45 miles from the registration area. There is path directly from this lot to registration and the start line. It will also be the easier lot to exit from after the race. This lot contains 125+ parking spots.
Area 5: This area is BY FAR the easiest to park at and also will have some of the spots closest to registration. This is parking on Woodward. There are hundreds of spots on both sides of the street. If you are parking near the tennis course you will be extremely close to registration.
Area 6: This area is neighborhood parking south of the Start/Finish area. There is a lot of parking on these streets, especially Covington. Please be respectful of the neighbors on race day.
Area 7: We have gotten permission to park cards on the North side of Merrill Plaissance BEHIND the finish line. This is normally a no parking zone, but parallel parking during the race is being allowed. Please only pull up as far as the cones, and the no parking signs. Anyone parking here can only stay until after awards. If you are staying for yoga, or the picnic do not park here or you may find a ticket when you return.
