Hotel Taxi Stands

The Department of Parking & Traffic (DPT) has begun enforcing restrictions at hotel white zones. Parking in white zones is restricted to five minutes for purposes of picking up or dropping off. Taxis as well as limousines will be ticketed for white zone violations.
A number of hotels have established taxi zones where it is legal for cabs to wait for passengers. But the taxi zone curbs are painted white and many are unmarked by signs, so there is no way to distinguish them from white zones.
DPT says it is going to restore taxi zone signage, and an effort is underway to have the curbs painted in white, green and yellow stripes, the official designation of taxi zones.
DPT has provided the following list of hotel taxi stands. It may not be completely up-to-date as it was compiled several years ago.
