Parking at the GFO
The on-street parking on SE Division in front of the building is strictly monitored and tow trucks begin removing vehicles weekdays at 4:00 pm sharp. Please be aware of this if you park there in the afternoon. Reading room research assistants will try to remind patrons of this but please don't rely on it.
There are three lots where GFO visitors may park for free.
- The one adjoining the building off of 11th. The one hour limit is enforced along the side of the building, but the rest of the lot is ok.
- Another lot, across 11th Street, enclosed by a chain link fence. Permit requirement is not currently enforced.
- The third lot is on the northwest corner of 10th and Division. Permit requirement is not currently enforced, but there are three spaces that are marked Reserved Ste 118 and the tire curb is red. Please do not park in these spaces. These are the only spaces in the three lots mentioned where parking is restricted and if you park in them, your car will be towed.
If building management begins to enforce the permit requirement or time limits, we will notify you via The Insider and at the reception desk as you enter the Library.
Please remember if you park in either of the lots off 11th Avenue, that the traffic is one-way headed south as you exit. Also, if you must park on the street, please look carefully at any signage to make certain parking is permitted, and for what length of time. We want your every visit to the GFO to be safe, pleasant, and productive.
