It's a shopping center right off the L.I.E. Exit 31 Douglaston Pkwy and 61st Avenue. Here's a link to a map.

You'll notice how close it is to where the L.I.E. intersects with the Cross Island Pkwy. By the way, I said Exit 30 in my previous posts, Douglaston Pkwy is Exit 31.

sorry to be the bringer of bad news but the Douglaston Blvd exit is closed off. only way to get there is to get off an exit before or after Douglaston. i know there's an exit that there's a gas station right when u get off....just can't think of it right now...u guys might want to rethink the douglaston mall/plaza idea. i'm heading out about exit 35 over the weekend so i'll try to see if there's anything along the service road.

What time are you planning on meeting over there? Inspection at the track is at 11am and it will take about 1hr 30min to get to the track from exit 31 so the latest we can meet there is 9:30. So do you want to say to meet between 9 and 9:30am?

Im trying to think of a good spot out where you guys suggested, but im drawing a blank right now. Im not sure if this would work out or not, but a little further into the LIE, there is a rest area. Its at exit 52. Maybe about 20-25 minutes east of where you were planning on meeting, but its out of the way of construction. From that point, the track is about 30-35 minutes at the most, after that.
If I can think of anymore places, ill post it

I would rather meet at a place that's right off a Exit... it could even be on the side of the street, as long as we all get up and no one gets left behind because they got lost or something..

The block is mainly clear and barely anyone parks there..Although in front of the school is "No standing" because its a bus stop, but we can always go across the street...
You guys still interested? Its a pretty wide block..Thats the only place I can think of that has a open area...If anything, you can always make a phone call and we'll be right there...

Mike, I'm still here... 
... and I'm still down to meet with you guys at the CT/Westchester Mobil stop. I'll PM you my cell later on. I'll also PM Steve from MA for confirmation, and I'll try to talk to this IS dude from my area and see if he's interested in checking out the meet.
