Parking alert: Weekend parking on Halsted ends this weekend

Chicago, IL - Starting this weekend, parking on North Halsted in Boystown will end at midnight. This follows a just-passed city ordinance bans all parking along a half-mile stretch of Halsted Street from Belmont to Addison on weekend nights during peak season.

From April 1 to September 30, parking will be prohibited on both sides of Halsted Street from Belmont to Addison from 11:59 p.m. on Fridays until 4 a.m. on Saturdays; from 11:59 p.m. on Saturdays until 4 a.m. on Sundays; and from 11:59 p.m. on Sundays until 4 a.m. on Mondays.

Parking on Halsted between Aldine and Belmont has been banned from midnight to 4 a.m. on Saturdays and Sundays between April 1 and September 30 for about four years.

According to CWBChicago.com, the restrictions were put in place after residents—many living in a condo building in the 3200 block of North Halsted—complained about late night music blasting from parked cars, dancing on sidewalks, and drug dealing.
