Parking for Old Cabell Hall

Old Cabell Hall is located at the south end of the historic Lawn, directly opposite the Rotunda.  

Parking is available at several locations both on and off "grounds".  Below are a few of the parking options:

Central Grounds Garage

The Central Grounds Garage is located on 400 Emmet Street under the University Bookstore. It is open to everyone; parking fees may apply (free on Sunday).

From the north: Follow 29 South through Charlottesville. As you pass Barracks Road Shopping Center, 29 South changes into Emmet Street. Follow Emmet Street through three lights. The fourth light will be at the intersection of Emmet and Ivy. The UVA tennis courts will be ahead of you on the left. Stay on Emmet through this intersection. After you pass Lewis Mountain Road on your right, the entrance to the parking garage will be on your left.

From I-64: Take Exit 118B to Charlottesville and then take the next right-hand exit (it comes up very quickly). At the end of the exit ramp, turn right onto Fontaine Avenue, towards Charlottesville. At the second light, go straight as Fontaine changes into Jefferson Park Avenue. Pass through a blinking yellow light. At the next stoplight, turn left onto Emmet Street. After you pass under two bridges, turn right into the parking garage.

C-1 Parking Lot (for those with limited mobility)

The C-1 lot is located off McCormick Road on Cabell Dr. behind Clark and Bryan Halls. This lot is the closest parking for limited mobility patrons. Parking in most spaces in the C1 parking lot are free for everyone after 5:00pm; however, there are some spaces that are permit parking "at all times".  The spaces that are reserved at all times, are designated by appropriate signage.
