The main streets in Downtown New London are Huntington Street, State Street, Bank Street and Union Plaza. Union Plaza, which is a continuation of State Street, comprises 3 office buildings and a brick walkway in between them and is the site of many downtown events. Bank Street, which runs parallel to a portion of the Thames River and the Waterfront Park, runs perpendicular to State and begins at Union Plaza. However, Bank Street is one-way from it's head at Union Plaza until it intersects with Tilley Street. There are two parking garages in walking distance. Abundant parking anywhere on State Street and Bank Street is available and up to 2 hours duration.
