DIRECTIONS FOR GARAGE PARKING

From US 59 North
Head south on US 59 and exit at Shepherd Street. Turn right at the light on Shepherd Street, and proceed to the first signal light, which is on Richmond. Turn right at Richmond. Drive one mile on Richmond until you arrive at Montrose. Make a left on Montrose.  The next signal light will be West Alabama street. Make a left on West Alabama. After turning on West Alabama, the third street is Graustark street. There is a parking garage on the corner of Graustark and West Alabama called the Moran Center parking garage. Make a left on Graustark. The entrance to the parking garage will now be to your immediate left.  

There is a flat $2.00 fee for parking in the garage, regardless of how many hours you are there. Once you park your car in the parking garage, you will see an automated blue colored pay station located on the first level of the parking garage. If you are standing directly in front of this pay station, you will see double doors to your right. The double doors will lead out of the parking garage. (If you parked on one of the upper levels, take the elevators down to the first floor. As soon as you exit the elevators, you will see the double doors to your right.) Once you have exited the parking garage, there will be a student lounge to your right. Go left down the pathway. You will pass between 2 buildings (Eugene Felice Malloy Hall to your left and the Robertson Science Hall to your right).You will see the Jones Hall building in front of you slightly to the right.

This may seem more complicated then parking on the surface lots, but it really is not. I personally found this much more simple and I avoided the “search” for a parking space. It probably took me twice as long to explain this then actually doing it!
