3.5 Miles Away... Ride Share is likely the fastest and cheapest way to get there. Traffic through downtown is highly likely.
Public Transit is roughly a ~20 minute bus ride, but also involves a 15 minute walk. If you drive there, parking is costly and still requires a lengthy walk.

Taylor Street is the best walking street to see our local businesses and
people out and about.
Otherwise, I would recommend Polk St for a quiet neighborhood walk to the park. Arrigo and Vernon Parks are great and Garibaldi is the closest playground for kids.
