Parking
There are 2-hour parking spaces in front and on the east side of the CDE building. The cost is 25 cents for 12 minutes and the meters only take quarters. There is two hour parking with no meters on some of the streets close by also. There are 10-hour metered spaces on the backside of the CDE building, which is O Street. Sometimes you can get lucky, but you need quarters to feed the meter. Other 10-hour metered spaces are on the left side of P Street, west of 15th and around Fremont Park, which is located at P and Q between 15th and 16th Streets.
The closest parking garage is 1517 13th Street, which is 13th and P Streets. If you drive to the CDE building, turn right on 15 Street alongside the building, then right again on O Street (to look for that 10 hour space). Continue on O to 13th street and turn left. The parking garage should be on the left. There are approximately 80 roof top spaces that have been identified for CDE visitors. Hourly parking rates posted at entrance to garage.
