Parking:
For those of you who will be driving to Memorial Hall, the parking is especially difficult and parking is expensive if you don't plan ahead! Any participant who is bringing a vehicle to campus must secure a parking permit, or be subject to ticket and/or tow. On Sunday you may find a spot in metered parking but we strongly recommend that your best option is to purchase a daily permit for $5 for weekend days and $10.00 for week days. To do this, please contact the Parking Office at Harvard at 617-495-3772 prior to August 4th.
Last minute parking permits are available for purchase on-site at the following address:

The suggested garage is the 52 Oxford Garage which is a secure, 24 hour facility that requires a permit and an access card. The most direct way to get to the garage is to follow Massachusetts Avenue (from the Inn) and go north towards the Law School. Take a right onto Everett Street. You will come to a set of lights. Go straight through and approach the guard at the booth. This is the entrance to 52 Oxford Street. The university has a very detailed on-line map if you have any questions.
We have attached a list of other local commercial parking facilities as well as two links. The first is general visitor parking information and the second is accessible parking information.
