Update : Finally got some feedback re: parking at 368 Phillip Street(18 min
walk from Dana Porter) and the word is "go for it".
So, as an alternative to parking at UW, there is a free choice(about 18
parking spaces), an 18-min walk away from Dana Porter.
The parking space is available from 6:30PM to whenever.
