The attraction’s official site lists the address as 8450 W. 10 Mile Road, Royal Oak, MI 48067, and gives the venue telephone number as 248-541-5717 (penguins.detroitzoo.org). The center was built on a 2-acre site near the entrance of the zoo (demariabuild.com). Construction included the building and parking lot, with intact ink tattoo bottles found 10 feet below the surface during excavation (penguins.detroitzoo.org). These details place visitor parking beside the zoo entrance rather than in a separate downtown facility. ## Parksy Parking Near PPCC The closest priced Parksy option is a secure outdoor lot in Royal Oak, 1.5 mi from PPCC, costing $99 a month. This is the nearest listed alternative for drivers seeking a recurring parking arrangement outside the zoo grounds. Southfield has two priced outdoor spaces 4.7 mi from the site: an affordable outdoor parking space at $69 a month and secure outdoor car storage at $69 a month. Both options are farther from the attraction than the Royal Oak lot, but their monthly rates are lower. Show map of Royal Oak ## Other Named Parking Options Around the Zoo Parksy also lists two priced RV and boat storage spaces in Troy, each 5.7 mi from PPCC and priced at $42 a month. These are storage-style options rather than short-stay visitor lots. A secure outdoor RV parking space in Highland Park is listed at $50 a month and is 6.0 mi from the site. The Detroit Zoo’s penguin-center information identifies the venue as being near the zoo entrance (demariabuild.com), which makes the zoo’s own entrance parking the most directly associated named facility for visitors arriving at the attraction. ## Busy Visits and Street Parking Near 10 Mile Road The center is part of the Detroit Zoo site, where the parking lot was constructed alongside the building (penguins.detroitzoo.org). The venue’s official pages describe the address as 8450 W. 10 Mile Road, Royal Oak, MI 48067 (penguins.detroitzoo.org). Drivers should approach from the zoo entrance rather than treating nearby residential streets as an extension of the attraction’s lot. The official penguin-center information also directs strollers to a designated stroller-parking area outside the penguin-center entrance (penguins.detroitzoo.org). ## Walking and Rail Access to PPCC PPCC is 0.9 mi from Royal Oak center. The site address is 8450 West 10 Mile Road, Royal Oak, United States, placing the attraction outside the central shopping area and making the zoo entrance the practical destination for the final approach. The supplied local transport information identifies Royal Oak center as the reference point for the attraction at 0.9 mi. The official PPCC pages provide the 8450 W. 10 Mile Road address and the 248-541-5717 telephone number (penguins.detroitzoo.org).
