There is parking off front between union and beale. Yes you have to pay but 1;45 would only cost you $2.50. An all day pass may cost 8 or 10. You will have to cross railroad tracks but the sidewalks take you the some nice residential and small public parks, part of the trail does cut through some private property that is only open to the public in daylight but you have to follow the river park signs...no venturing off. Cross the bridge..right will take you to tom lee and harbor town, left will take you to big river crossing. You can see mud island from tom lee park. To get back, you can cross the street since most of riverside is closed to traffic. If you feel real strong and daring, walk up any set of the steps as you head back to your vehicle
