Parking tickets must be validated prior to departure at the Security Desk located in the Atrium. Parking is limited and space is not guaranteed. The garage is located at 271 North 21st Street, Philadelphia, PA 19103. If you plan on bringing a group, please note that we require one adult chaperone per every 10 children.
