Parking a RV in Richmond

Hi all,
I'm driving a RV down to the Symposium in June. I'm starting to think I'm going to have trouble with parking it anywhere near the Convention Center. Does anyone know the layout there and if there is overnight parking in the city or close by enough for a taxi? Maybe even if there is overnight parking on the street? I would drive it in each morning from somewhere, but then where do I park it? Hummm? Is anyone else doing this? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Joel

I don't know Richmond, haven't been there in 40+ years, but I make some good guesses.
They will not want you parking your rig on any city street, not for the night, not for the weekend. Cities really frown on that sort of thing.
WalMart has a policy of allowing overing-nighting, if allowed by local ordinance. But even they don't want you spending four nights there.

When I took the rig to Portland, I stayed at an RV campground I knew, I and about 10 more rigs there for the Symposium (the stream of trucks returning, all together, from the dinner was impressive).

If I was going to Richmond, I would ask about campgrounds on the Open Roads Forum at RV.net
