Special Notice
Because of the nearby construction and for other reasons, parking at La Cote d’Or, and in the Econolodge lot next door, is extremely cramped on Thursdays. Raymond requests your understanding, and also your cooperation: if you’re arriving early, please use the metered parking on Westmoreland St. even though it costs a few quarters.
