Two+ old ladies coming to the Atlanta march on 1/21. Need

info on where to park that will be close to event. We are country folk and don't know how to navigate the Marta system. I lived in Atl. in the 1970s, but so much has changed. We will be coming from I-75 North.

It's at the Center for Civil and Human rights, near the Aquarium. There is a lot of parking around there. Sorry I can't be more specific. If you exit 75 (headed south) on Northside Dr., when you see the ginormous Ga World COngress Center, turn L. That's Ivan Allen.

You could take 285E, get off at Ashford Dunwoody, GPS to the Dunwoody Marta station and park for free if you return the same day or $5 a day if you stay overnight.

Marta is easy, especially compared with driving downtown. I feel certain there will be many at the stations heading for the march, so it should be easy to join a group and have a personal escort.
