Parking around Wyckoff Heights Medical Center
Hey guys,
What would be a good place to find parking around Wyckoff Heights Medical Center in Brooklyn? I'll be posted there for a few months. Starting next week I'll be coming in around 08:00am and then a week after that maybe around 6-7 am.
I thought I'd ask since its such a very busy area. Any useful tips?

I wish you well... I won't be surprised if you have to park a few blocks away. Parking over there is ridiculous. I lived on Starr St, off of St. Nicholas Ave., so even when I had my polypectomy done, I just walked it home. Didn't feel like having to deal with the hassles of driving there and trying to find parking.
I should add, though, that I've been gone from NY since 2005, so they may very well have addressed that since then.

If my memory serves me well I think the shift change at 7 am in that hospital. I always found parking around that time, I just waited on the street to see some nurse get in the car and leave, i think at 8 am it would be a little harder. But I never had any problem even at 9 or 10 am, you should find parking withing 10 to 15 mins. max 20 mins. and it should be no more then 3 blocks away. Hey 3 blocks away in NY is normal walk for everybody. |

You can try parking near the L train stations. Then take the L train to Dekalb, which is just one block from the Hospital. I am going to be a resident there for a bit and was thinking about diving my car as well. If I could drive it would be a 10 minute commute, but the trains may just be easier but 30 minute commute.
