## Parking at West Riverfront Station on Third

Riverfront parking information says all Detroit Riverfront parks have an associated parking lot available free of charge on a first come, first served basis (detroitriverfront.org). Those lots serve the riverfront parks and are separate from a dedicated station car park, so they are most relevant for drivers combining a rail journey with a riverfront visit.
