The campus is a university site, but the published parking pages returned for the Dominican name describe other institutions rather than this Ottawa campus, so they do not provide usable permit, visitor-parking, operator or rate details for DUC. For a driver heading to 116 Empress Avenue, the practical choice is therefore to plan around nearby paid spaces rather than assume that a campus permit or visitor bay is available. The campus sits 390 m from Somerset centre, making a short approach from nearby parking areas realistic for students, staff and visitors who are carrying only everyday belongings. ## Parksy Parking Spaces Near DUC in Centretown The closest listed option is a monthly space 200 m from the campus at $120 a month. Its longer-term format suits students or staff attending regularly, while the short walk also makes it useful for a visitor staying for an extended appointment. Two spaces 670 m away charge $3 an hour: one is a covered garage and the other is a space at 200 Bay Street. The covered garage is a practical fit for staff or visitors wanting sheltered parking, while the Bay Street option suits short campus visits. At 870 m, a monthly space at 244 Arlington Avenue costs $200 a month, and spaces at 490 Gilmour Street and another nearby parking lot each cost $3 an hour. The monthly Arlington option is aimed at regular users, while the hourly spaces are better for occasional visitors. Show map of Somerset ## Other Ottawa Car Parks for Visits Near Empress Avenue The nearby parking choices listed for this page are the main alternatives to using campus parking: a monthly space 200 m away, a covered garage 670 m away, a space at 200 Bay Street 670 m away, and three spaces 870 m away. Those categories therefore cannot be used to recommend a specific public lot near 116 Empress Avenue. For a paid visit, the listed hourly spaces provide the clearest option, while the monthly spaces are directed at regular campus users. ## Busy Periods and Street Parking Around the Campus DUC’s position in Centretown, near Somerset, puts the campus in an urban setting where demand can rise during university activity and nearby city movement. The campus is 390 m from Somerset centre, so drivers approaching at busy times may encounter competing demand close to the Empress Avenue address. The published local material does not provide term dates, event schedules, open-day dates, surrounding-street restrictions, permit zones or enforcement hours for this campus. A driver should therefore base the visit on a reserved or listed paid space rather than rely on an assumed curbside bay. The monthly space 200 m away is the most direct listed choice for repeated attendance, while the $3-an-hour options at 670 m and 870 m fit one-off visits. ## Walking to DUC From Dow’s Lake Station Dow’s Lake station is the nearest station to Dominican University College, at 1.5 km from the campus and a 20-minute walk. The station provides a rail-and-walking approach for visitors who prefer not to drive into Centretown. From the station, the stated walking time makes rail practical for a planned appointment, class or campus visit rather than a last-minute transfer. Drivers using the Parksy spaces can also leave the car farther from 116 Empress Avenue and complete the final approach on foot, with the listed walking distances ranging from 200 m to 870 m.
