Parking
-
Because the classroom is located
near the heart of the main campus, there is no parking immediately adjacent to
it. There are several parking options, each varies in its proximity to the
classroom and number of spaces (and probability of finding an open spot). The
availability of these parking spaces is affected by the schedule of special
Stanford events.
-
The nearest street parking is
along the Oval or on Santa Teresa Street. There are additional spaces along
Lomita Drive in front of the Cantor Center for Visual Arts, the Rodin Sculpture
Garden, and the Old Chemistry Building.There are relatively few of these
popular spaces.
-
There is a large number of
parking spaces available in the multi-story parking structures, PS-1 (off of
Campus Drive and Roth Way) and PS-2 (on the corner of Panama Street and Via
Ortega) as well as the parking lot adjacent to Tresidder Union. This
map shows their relationship to the
classroom.
-
Other parking areas can be
found on the maps.
