Question/Parking: I park in the Ramp and walk to Chester Fritz Library. The Ramp is closed next week (May 12-19?). Do you have suggestions where I can park for that week? When the Ramp opens, will sidewalks on 2nd Ave. N be open so I can walk through the construction to the Library? If not, do you have suggestions for walking paths?
VERY nice map/diagram of the construction area.
Thanks!

Hi Denyse,
The best location to park that’s close to the ramp would be the lot to the east of Columbia. During the ramp closure, permit holders may continue to use the skywalk and towers for crossing Columbia. The ramp is only closing for annual maintenance, so sidewalks on 2nd Avenue N. will be open.
Thanks! I’ve never investigated the east parking lot – I thought it was student/visitors only. Is it okay for me to park there with an A permit?
Yes, a large portion is an A/S/H permit lot.
