During the Market Square redevelopment in Stratford,<br />
please continue to support the many great businesses in<br />
the area. During construction, Revel has a back door and<br />
you can enter via their patio. The George Street lot beside<br />
Raja is often empty and the parking meters offer longer<br />
term parking. Erie St through Allen’s Alley adds a few more<br />
paces to your day, providing the added benefit of exercise<br />
and fresh air, and as always Cooper Site has free parking.<br />
