Greenwich Concours Parking

I'd like to take a ride up to Greenwich Concours this year but I'm unsure as to the parking. I'm a little nervous parking the M491 off site.

If you have been there please advise on the parking situation. I was hoping for a PCA P-car corral.

Thanks

You are not going to find any "corrals" at the concours.

If you get there early enough, the best & closest place to park is Lot 3 on the map below. It is directly across the street from Roger Sherman Baldwin Park where the concours is held. However, the lot fills up quickly as many people park their rides there with "For Sale" signs on them.

All of the other lots listed are on the other side of Rt.95. Lots 1 & 2 are the closest. But, your car will be further away. There is always a good police presence in the area on the days of the concours.

Every time that I have been, there have always been vehicles worth much, much more than any one of my cars parked nearby left unattended.

Thanks guys. I wanted to hear about the parking conditions from someone who has been to the event.

My paranoia is strong. I feel better now, plus my wife has been dying to go and I did not want to dissapoint or drive the DD there.

Thanks

I'd just like to check out all the rare cars that are shown. No snobbery here, I'm a lowly plumber from Brooklyn.

It's not the city. You should be fine.
