Vernon Blvd
|
Anywhere between 51st and and 46th Rd
|
2 hr metered parking weekdays 9-6 (Need to reconfirm)
|
Lots of cafes and restaurants mostly all on Vernon plus a nearby subway station means lots of pedestrians. Parking is fairly plentiful (so fewer complainers) and the straight street is an excellent candidate for traffic calming.
