Parking is very challenging in much of the West End, but particularly in this neighbourhood.  Please consider other transportation alternatives, such as TransLink.  The #6 Davie stops near Broughton, just a few blocks south of the meeting location.  The #5 Robson also stops just a couple of blocks north.
