Shuttle Service to the ISGC

Post by Jerry Berger »

I am staying at the Hilton Hotel (by the ballpark) and would like to know if there is shuttle service to the convention site from the Hilton.

Thanks....Jerry

Jerry,

I'm not aware of a shuttle, but they may have one.

If your concern is security, it's a short walk--less than 10 minutes, closer to 5-- and you'll be in a well lighted and travelled part of the city.

Thanks, Ron. Security did cross my mind, especially when I'm walking back to my hotel room after midnight.

I understand. I wouldn't feel comfortable too much east of the stadium. If you can find some other ISGC attendees to walk with it would be good. Won't be much activity around Busch Stadium with the Cards being here in Cincinnati.

One year I stayed down at Adam's Mark, a couple blocks west of The Millennium. The sidewalks were under construction, which required some back and forth crossing 4th Street. Even at that, it wasn't bad and I never felt I was at risk.

I'm sure I will feel more comfortable in that neighborhood :whoa: after I make the first trip to the Millennium.

I've walked from the Millenium to the stadium late at night to catch the MetroLink and have never been concerned. I doubt there is much of a threat in that area.
