Relative clauses... slightly more advanced

[mooose.livejournal.com]

I know the use of который in forming a relative clause (along with its declensions depending on its grammatical role in the relative clause), but how would you deal with saying things like:

The lane, at the end of which is a park, runs next to the river.
The summer, during which we went to Moscow, ended too soon.
They sell newspapers at the kiosk close to where we parked the car.

I've searched through all my textbooks, but all most they get to is "The person with whom he is speaking to is a famous scientist." i.e. using ", с которым ...,".

Thanks in advance :-)

I know that хотеть goes with чтобы when you're introducing another cause, but I can't find a way around of using если when saying "I wanted to know whether or not you had (item)" when asking some employer at a store. My book says I can't use если when using "whether," only use ли. But... ok, in essence, I have no clue how to say it in Russian.
