Parking at WSU School of Medicine on East Canfield Street
WSU School of Medicine is in Medical Center, near Saint Antoine, at 540 East Canfield Street. Parking for employees, students and visitors is provided in WSU Parking Structure 4 at 555 East Canfield Street, on the northwest corner of Canfield and St. Antoine (med.wayne.edu).
The campus parking operator is Wayne State University parking. Parking Structure 4 is being upgraded to 24/7 status, and overnight parking requires a valid parking permit (parking.wayne.edu). A permit is therefore important for anyone leaving a vehicle overnight, while visitors and short daytime trips are best planned around the structure rather than nearby residential streets.
When Medical Center Parking Is Most Difficult
Parking pressure is highest around university activity at the Medical Center, especially during term-time weekday arrivals, examinations, visitor appointments and university events.
Canfield Street and St. Antoine are the key approach roads because the official structure sits at their northwest corner (med.wayne.edu). Overnight parking in Structure 4 requires a valid permit after the move to 24/7 operation (parking.wayne.edu), so drivers without campus authorization should avoid treating the structure as an unrestricted overnight option.
Parksy Parking Spaces Near WSU School of Medicine
The closest priced Parksy option is a covered garage space 0.4 miles from the campus, priced at $8 a day. Its sheltered format suits students or staff who need a dependable full-day space without using the university structure.

The longer walk makes this better suited to visitors or staff planning a full day in the area, particularly when a lower-cost covered space is unavailable. Both listed prices are daily rates, so they are most useful for one-day visits, appointments and occasional campus attendance.
