In an effort to save prime parking spaces for customers of downtown businesses, Parking Committee Chair Bill Furlow and member Marty Seibert visited with most of the businesses on Main Street between Commerce and Pearl, inviting them to have their employees park in the Britton & Koontz Bank (B&K) lot. B&K through its bank president, Kevin Smith, generously offered downtown business owners and employees the use of the southeast side of its lot (by St. Mary’s Basilica and Philip Carby’s law office). The reception overall was positive and all are encouraged to keep up the effort!
Charlie Speed, president of Regions Bank, also offered the use of his bank’s parking lot for downtown employees who work closer to the corner of Pearl and Franklin streets. Bill and Charlie will soon make the rounds of businesses on that side of town.

There is also a public parking lot near South Wall Street.
