MAP

Routes 2 and 16 stop at Oak Street/Washington and Coffman Union.
Route 3 stops at Jones Hall (eastbound) or Eddy Hall (westbound).
Limited stop service to the U of MN is provided by Routes 111,113,114, 115 and 129.

For those coming by car: 

Recommend parking is in the Washington Street Ramp, bounded by Washington, Harvard, Beacon, and Union Streets. Enter the address 501 SE Washington Ave, Minneapolis, MN 55455 into your car’s navigation system.

One route is via 35W to University Avenue.  Then go east to Church Street.  Turn right (south) on Church at the Bell Museum.  Go one block, then turn left on Pillsbury Drive. Pillsbury winds around and becomes Harvard St. Turn right on Beacon Street, then left on Union to the ramp entrance. 

If you travel I-94, exit at Huron Ave, which is on the east side of the Mississippi River.  The first stop light after the exit is SE Fulton.  Turn left on Fulton to Harvard Street.  Note that Fulton merges with East River Parkway just before it reaches Harvard.  Turn right on Harvard. (Do not follow East River Parkway past the University Hospitals.) Harvard is a narrow, busy street with many pedestrians and cyclists. Cross Washington Ave. and the parking ramp is just on the other side.  Turn left on Beacon Street, and left again on Union to the ramp entrance.

Another possibility from I-94 is to exit at Hwy 280 and then exit onto University Avenue.  Take University west as far as Williams Arena, then branch onto 4th St. as it becomes one way.  Go a few blocks to 17th Avenue.  Turn left and in one block cross University Ave., where 17th Ave. becomes Church St.   Go one more block, then turn left on Pillsbury Drive. Pillsbury winds around and becomes Harvard St. Turn right on Beacon Street, then left on Union to the ramp entrance.
