Parking

The Fourth Street building is considered campus facility, with C, F, and M (motorcycle) permits being valid for use in the adjacent parking lot. Paid hourly parking is also available for the lot via an automated kiosk. Many employees choose to use street parking, however, be aware that it is limited in availability, often has time restrictions, and lacks UC Berkeley security.
