TENANT'S SPACE AT TURNVEREIN:
There is a tenant living in an apartment in the basement of the Turnverein and there is a reserved parking space for his use. The space is in the back of the Turnverein (next to the alley) and is clearly marked with a large sign and cones in the space. DO NOT PARK IN THAT SPACE or you may be towed!
ADDITIONAL PARKING AT FILLMORE ON NON-CONCERT NIGHTS (NO PERMIT REQUIRED):
On nights when there is no concert, Fillmore management has agreed to let people attending Turnverein events park in the Fillmore parking lot, which is adjacent to the south side of the Turnverein parking lot.
ADDITIONAL PARKING AT BANK OF DENVER (PERMIT REQUIRED):
The Turnverein has arranged with the Bank of Denver to provide additional spaces for parking near the Turnverein. These spaces
are available any night; not just concert nights. The bank has agreed to let us use 22 spaces and may add more spaces later if we are
compliant with their requirements. The manager, Paul "Max" Maxey, will provide a supply of undated permits to the door table each night he is there. He is off on Thursday and Friday and will arrange to have Wayne leave a supply of permits at the door table on Fridays. However, there are specific instructions members and others attending the Turnverein need to follow in order to use these spaces.
1. Stop by the Turnverein first and park in front of the stairs, as close as possible to the stairs, in order to avoid impeding traffic.
2. Pick up a temporary parking permit from the door table. Instructions should be on the back of each permit or handed out with each permit. (Some have already been printed only with maps; not instructions.) The parking permits will be dated as needed, with a large marker, with the month, date, and year, for example, 03/01/09.
3. Drive to the entrance of the bank parking lot on Clarkson just past (north of) 16th Ave., on the right (east side).
4. Drive straight to the back of the parking lot and park next to the alley, or in the spaces on the south side, facing out (people will have
to back into the spaces, so the tow truck drivers driving through the lot can easily see the parking permits).
See below for an overhead picture of the parking lot and the spaces available for our use, which are circled in red.
5. Place the parking permit on the dashboard of the vehicle. Any vehicles parked in the wrong spaces, parked facing front end toward to the alley, or without a permit valid for that date will be TOWED. The spaces may be used between 6:00 PM and 6:00 AM. Vehicles should not
be left overnight past 6:00 AM.
ADDITIONAL PARKING ON FILLMORE CONCERT NIGHTS (PERMIT REQUIRED):
On nights when there is a concert at the Fillmore Auditorium (Colfax and Clarkson), the Turnverein has also arranged for additional parking in several small parking lots within a few blocks of the Turnverein. If the parking lot is full when you arrive at the Turnverein, go ahead and pull into the parking lot, and speak to one of the parking attendants. They will probably be able to provide you with a permit and directions to park nearby.
Even if you already know of the additional lots, you must get a permit first each time, or your vehicle may be towed! Also, if you park in one
of the additional lots without a permit, the Turnverein parking attendants do not have an accurate count of how many spaces are left in the nearby lots.
PARKING PRECAUTIONS:
If you are at all uncomfortable walking back to your car alone, please ask another dancer to escort you to your vehicle, or walk with someone
else leaving at the same time. Please do not leave any valuables in plain sight in your vehicle and always lock your vehicle.
The spaces circled in red below, adjacent to the alley, are the spaces we can use at the Bank of Denver between 6:00 PM and 6:00 AM only.
