Parking is available in the 43rd & Elkhorn Garage at the corner of Elkhorn Ave. and West 43rd St.聽You must enter the garage from Elkhorn Ave. Do not park in the Faculty/Staff side of the garage.

There is hourly parking available on all levels of the 43rd & Elkhorn Garage. Hourly parking is $2.00 per hour and can be paid for using your cell phone through MobilePay text2park.
