Yes! There are 4 free lots.: One is located across the street from the church on Girard Avenue, with access on Lawrence St. (Look for the St. John Neumann flags). Another is located south of the church behind the school, between 5th and Lawrence St. (The lot cuts through and connects 5th and Lawrence). Another is located on 5th Street, across from the school. The last is the school lot, which is located behind the church with access from Lawrence St. If you park here, you can enter through the shrine and take the elevator to get to the church.
You can check into your hotel, which starts at 4PM for the Notary and the Loews. You can visit the Shrine of St. John Neumann, where his body lies. This is located directly next to the church in a separate entrance. The shrine also has a museum where you can learn more about his life and his miracles. You can grab a drink at one of the bars near Vie. (South or Clementine's)
Yes, there is complimentary valet parking at the entrance.
We will be providing trolley transportation at the end of the reception to both the Notary and the Loews. If you are staying at the Marriott, just get off the trolley with the Loews folks!
