Approximate meeting address: 247 4th St NW, Atlanta, GA 30318

Arriving from Midtown Marta

The Tech Trolley is available from the Midtown MARTA (Atlanta's rapid rail system) station to various points on campus. The Georgia Tech Parking & Transportation website has more information.

The North Station MARTA stop is located at the south end of campus. Exit the station onto North Ave and turn right to cross the connector and enter campus.

Visitor Parking

There are several visitor parking lots available on campus on a first-come, first-serve basis. We suggest the parking deck at Technology Square, located fewer than four blocks from the East and West Architecture buildings. Rates range from $1.00 for less than one hour to $10.00 for an entire day. To get there from Techwood Dr. or Fowler St., go east on Fifth St. toward Technology Square. Turn right onto Spring St. The entrance is the first driveway on the right, immediately after the GT Hotel and Conference Center.

From the Technology Square parking deck, walk three blocks west on Fifth St. across the Fifth St. Bridge. The rear of the East and West Architecture Buildings will be on the left, beside the Klaus Advanced Computing Building. Georgia Tech’s complimentary shuttle, the Tech Trolley, also runs from Technology Square and stops on Fifth St. close to the rear of the East and West Architecture Buildings.

Other visitor parking areas can be found at this link. We suggest Area 3 (Ferst Dr. & Regents Dr.) located near the Campus Recreation Center, or Area 4 (State Street Visitor Lot) located on Ferst Dr., between Hemphill and State Street.
