The Walsh Architecture Visitor Lot is accessible by Holy Cross Drive on the east side of the Walsh Family Hall of Architecture (located north of the Raclin Murphy and Charles B. Hayes Family Sculpture Park).
There is a handicap accessible parking lot on the corner of Holy Cross Drive and St. André Way.
Campus parking is free of charge after 4:00 p.m. Monday through Friday and on weekends, except for football Saturdays. So, you could enjoy free parking if you visit the Museum on weekends or between 4:00 and 7:30 p.m. on Thursdays.
