So for now, when you visit the AHC during the week, please park across the street in the 700 Lavaca parking garage. The only entrance is on Guadalupe (on the left, just before the light at 8th St). Park in any unmarked space and we will give you a validation ticket at the Reference desk. Metered parking is available nearby on weekends and is free on Sundays.
