What you need to know about new Detroit parking system:
"The rollout of Detroit’s new parking system has been pretty smooth so far. 
But like any new tool, it takes a little trial and error to figure out the best way to use it.
After using the system several times since enforcement began Sept. 1 and paying in a variety of ways, we came up with a few tips and reminders for using the new parking kiosks.
They are set up downtown, Midtown, Corktown and along Michigan Avenue and Vernor in southwest and Livernois in northwest Detroit.
Parking meters in those areas have been removed. 
Rather than park in an assigned space, drivers park on the street and posted signs tell drivers the zone where they parked.
Drivers can pay with coins or credit card at a kiosk on the curb or through their smartphone by downloading the ParkDetroit mobile app or going to the www.parkdetroit.us website.
