If you do so, please be careful not to block the road. Other cars must be able to pass the house (and your car) at all times of the day; this is a public road. If you block the road, you risk a hefty ticket.Street parking is free in the area, but it is not always easy to find a spot. Especially on the weekend, you may have to circle a few blocks to find one.As an alternative, consider the Edison Parking on Market Street, it is a 5-minute walk from the house and costs ~20$ for 24 hours.
