Alternate Side Rules, Parking Meters Suspended for Another Day

Good morning, Douglaston.

It's still treacherous out there, so be careful. The city has suspended alternate side parking for a second day, so make sure to click on our link to the city's Department of Transportation.

 Also, parking metered spots are free - that is, if they are not covered in several feet of snow.
