Getting Around:

Again, walking can easily be your first choice. Aside from that, there is a FREE trolley bus called the DOT shuttle that takes you all arounf the historic district. There is a stop just two blocks down at Whitaker and Liberty St. This is a nice way to get a good view of the City and have an easy hop-on-ho-off option that's free. Another free option is The Downtowner, which is an app like Uber/Lyft but ran by the City and completely free! It runs 10am-midnight daily. If you do need to bring a car, we suggest the "leave it and forget it" option - just park it in the garage and don't pick it up until it's time to leave.
