Members offered discounts at downtown parking site

A reminder to ISBA members who need to drive into Chicago frequently for meetings or MCLE seminars but want to find parking accommodations that don't cost as much as $28 per day, a typical rate.

The Committee on Bar Services and Activities has obtained an arrangement with InterPark Garage at Lake and Dearborn Streets, a block from the Richard J. Daley Center and three blocks from the ISBA office, that provides discounted parking at $20 per day.

Members may purchase prepaid parking passes, in quantities of 10 for $200, at the first-floor garage office. Just show your ISBA membership card, and, of course, you can use your ISBA MasterCard to make payment.

If you have a question or need more information, call Brent Young at (312) 656-4713.
