Detroit Tigers in the playoffs: Where to park, how to get around for ALDS games
DETROIT (FOX 2) - Detroit is going to be busy for the next two days, thanks to the Tigers making the playoffs and playing at home for the first time in 10 years.
The Tigers take on the Guardians at Comerica Park on Wednesday and Thursday.
Here's what to know before you head downtown:
Parking in Downtown Detroit
Spot Hero allows you to see nearby parking options and prices. Plus, you can use the website to book a spot now, so it is reserved and paid for when you get there.
As of Wednesday morning, the lots closed to Comerica Park have spots going for $50-$70 for tonight's game and $50-$80 for Thursday's game.
If you're OK with walking a bit, you'll have more luck finding a spot without breaking the bank. There are lots further from the action but closer to the heart of downtown that are currently available for $20 and below, with some as cheap as $10 if you head a bit west of the busy area.
