[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We love our daycare (the BCC Shoe), but parking for drop-off and, especially, pick-up is terrible[/quote] It hasn't gotten much worse in the last few months. I've been there for many years and it used to be pretty unusual to be unable to get a spot. There must be more tenants/guests of tenants using the spots, but it definitely has made things a little less convenient.[/quote] Whoops. HAS gotten worse recently, to the extent that wasn't already clear.[/quote] Part of the reason for the worse parking situation is that many of us (especially those who live in the surrounding neighborhood) used to part in the Our Lady of Lourdes parking lot (with the church's permission) and then walk down the concrete steps to cross the parking lot next to the Shoe's building to its' entrance. Last year, a tenant at the building next to the Shoe put up a metal fence between the OLOL parking lot and the parking lot next to the Shoe, straight across those concrete steps. The only way to park there now and get to the Shoe is to either scale the sort of steep grassy hill (tough to do in work clothes and with a struggling toddler or infant) or to walk around the block to the sidewalk (might as well just wait for the spots to open up in front of the Shoe). This fence is annoying, and I think it's part of the reason that the parking at the Shoe has gotten difficult. It's not the Shoe's fault at all unfortunately. But, it's the one small thing that I don't like about the daycare - I love everything else about it, and wish I'd known about it when our older child was in daycare years ago! [/quote]
