Marta. It's smarta. For those traveling in from the Airport, you can take Marta (Atlanta's Mass Transit and rail system) North to stop N5, Arts Center. This stop drops you off in Midtown Atlanta, just North of 14th St, on West Peachtree. This is walking distance to Carolyn's, Vinyl, and surrounding hotels.
It's pretty easy. The train is right in the airport. It's the southern most stop. There are only two trains that leave out of the airport (to Doraville or North Springs), both go North, and both go right by this stop. So you can't even pick a wrong train. All you have to do is remember to get off at your stop. It's pretty cheap too. Around $3. It takes about 30 minutes to go from the airport to N5 (Arts Center).
Of course, those who live here may wish to take Marta as well. No matter which line or direction, the closest stop is N5, Arts Center. Marta Rail Map. Or, call Marsh. I'll pick up as many as I can traveling in from the airport. Or send Jason. that bastard.
Parking.There is some free parking behind Carolyn's.
Those staying at hotels, typically they have parking for $15. There are many reasonably priced pay lots on the blocks between 14th & 12th, West Peachtree & Crescent Ave. There are also several paid parking lots near Vinyl (which is just a few blocks North of Carolyn's and walkable). Note, the starting point (Carolyn's) and ending point (Vinyl) are only a few blocks apart. If parking, you'll be able to walk back to your car. Hotels are recommended. |
