Something not right?

Description

I parked here for about 3 weeks no problem. the turn around area at Prospect Park only gets a mild amount of foot traffic, at night its pretty damn quiet, less than a half mile walk to the metro ($2 for reloadable card, $2-2.50 one way into the city depending on time of day and stop).

The Fashion Center Mall food court is a great place to sit, charge devices, has free wifi, washrooms and obviously lots of food options. Small Target has a few groceries and other necessities. Planet Fitness is close as well. Showers are clean but water is low pressure and temp varies from cold to lukewarm.

Army Navy Drive one street west also has parking that is a bit more out of sight of residential condos and is darker, but has more highway noise.

we spent 2 nights and 3 days without any problem. We moved our RV every day to avoid parking always in the same position.

Stayed here for 3 nights. Perfectly quiet, plenty of spaces to park. 10-15 min walk to the nearest metro station and a mall w/ food court. Would recommend

Nous avons passé 2 nuits dans la rue. Tout s'est bien passé, rue plutôt calme. Il y a target un peu plus bas si besoin de toilettes. La rue est en pente, on était placés dans le virage pour être à plat.
On allait dans Washington en métro qui est à 5-10min à pied.

Great spot! Quiet at night. Short distance down to the town center with lots of local spots, big store names, and a 24/7 planet fitness.

Definitely will be staying here again. Had no issues at all. Stayed overnight and then stayed parked there all day.

This spot is a gem! Free, no posted restrictions, quiet street, always lots of parking in the evenings (during the day it gets a bit more busy as I think commuters into the city use it), short walk to metro. The Fashion Center Mall food court is a great place to sit, charge devices, has free wifi, and obviously lots of food options. Small target has a few groceries and other necessities. Planet Fitness is close as well. Showers are clean but water is low pressure and temp varies from cold to lukewarm.

Stayed here one night. Area doesn't seem bad. Was quiet at night expect for two people trying to pee next or on my van. The female was next to me window, so I assumed she was on the phone until she got up and pulled her pants up. Then the dude started going by my van and I yelled at them, they took off and it was quiet for the rest of the night. Two other vehicles camped out there. Probably not a place for a large RV. All cell services are available.

A good place to sleep. We left the car one day and went to Narional mall with the Metro by Petagon City Station ($4.1 round trip + $2 card). Very safe and quiet. Not recommend for big rigs, just a van or a small vehicle.

I parked here for about 3 weeks no problem. the turn around area at prospect park only gets a mild amount of foot traffic, at night its pretty damn quiet, less than a half mile walk to the metro, plenty of restaurants and shops about 5 min away! neighborhood is safe and you can fit up to a sprinter, don't recommend anything larger. if you have to use the restroom, I would go to the giant about a mile away. you don't have to worry about losing your spot here either.
