## Bronx Zoo Parking for the Carter Giraffe Building

The Carter Giraffe Building is an exhibit at the Bronx Zoo, at 2300 Southern Boulevard in The Bronx near The Gulch. The zoo map identifies Southern Boulevard Parking as a parking area serving the grounds, alongside Bronx River Parking (bronxzoo.com). The exhibit page places Carter Giraffe Building within the zoo and notes that admission is included with all tickets (bronxzoo.com).

Parking at the Bronx Zoo is listed at $13 for cars and $16 for buses (wcs.org). The exhibit’s last entry is 30 minutes before the park closes, so drivers visiting late in the day need to allow time to park and reach the building (bronxzoo.com). Southern Boulevard Parking is the most directly named option for approaching the site from 2300 Southern Boulevard (bronxzoo.com).

## Other Named Parking Areas Near Carter Giraffe Building

Bronx River Parking is another named Bronx Zoo parking area shown on the zoo’s interactive map, separate from Southern Boulevard Parking (bronxzoo.com). The map also labels Fordham Road Gate and Fountain Circle, which help drivers orient themselves within the zoo grounds after arriving (bronxzoo.com).

The zoo map places Bronx River Parking among the marked parking and access points around the grounds, while Southern Boulevard runs beside the site (bronxzoo.com). For a visit centered on the giraffe exhibit, the named zoo lots are more relevant than unrelated parking elsewhere in The Bronx because the exhibit is inside the zoo complex.

## Busy Zoo Days and Street Parking Around Southern Boulevard

Weekend and school-holiday visits can place more pressure on parking around the Bronx Zoo, particularly when visitors arrive close to opening time. The zoo’s parking charge applies to cars and buses, with the listed rates of $13 for cars and $16 for buses (wcs.org).

Southern Boulevard is the principal street named for the attraction, and the zoo map also identifies the Fordham Road Gate, Bronx River Parking, Fountain Circle and Southern Boulevard Parking (bronxzoo.com). Drivers should use the marked zoo access points rather than treating nearby curb space as an extension of the zoo lots. The exhibit’s final entry is 30 minutes before park closing, which makes late arrivals especially time-sensitive (bronxzoo.com).
