## Parking at the University of Oregon Museum of Natural and Cultural History

The University of Oregon Museum of Natural and Cultural History has a small parking lot identified as 34A on campus maps, providing the closest vehicle access to the museum at 1680 East 15th Avenue (mnch.uoregon.edu). The museum also has four ADA spaces in that lot, and a museum parking permit is required for those spaces (mnch.uoregon.edu).

Metered street parking is available on 15th Avenue, while free, time-limited parking is available in the surrounding area (mnch.uoregon.edu). Street parking with a posted ADA placard is free (mnch.uoregon.edu). The museum operates Wednesdays through Sundays from 10:00 a.m. (Oregon Museums Association).

## Parksy Parking Near UOMNCH

The nearest listed Parksy option is a lot in Eugene, 271 yards from UOMNCH. This space is not priced in the available listing, so the priced alternative is more useful for a driver planning a fixed-cost stay.

Parksy also lists a driveway space 2.2 miles away for $20 an hour. Other listed options are parking near Elk Horn Brewery, a general Eugene parking space, a space near downtown, and parking at E737 HILYARD & 11TH, all between 0.9 and 1.1 miles from the museum.

## Busy Times and Street Parking Around 15th Avenue

Parking pressure is likely to be greatest during the museum’s seasonal and year-round programs, which include science and culture events (mnch.uoregon.edu). Event visits can make the small museum lot fill sooner than an ordinary museum trip, so arriving before a scheduled program is practical.

Drivers using 15th Avenue should use the metered spaces described by the museum, while nearby free spaces are time-limited (mnch.uoregon.edu). The site’s ADA street spaces are free when used with a posted ADA placard (mnch.uoregon.edu).

## Other University of Oregon Parking Choices Near the Museum

Lot 16A at 14th Avenue and Kincaid Street is another named University of Oregon parking option. Visitors to the Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art are encouraged to use this lot, which offers free public parking on weekends (jsma.uoregon.edu).

Lot 16A is a practical alternative for drivers combining a museum visit with the university’s art museum, while the museum’s own 34A lot remains the specifically identified parking area for UOMNCH. The free weekend provision at Lot 16A applies to that university lot and is separate from the museum’s metered 15th Avenue parking (jsma.uoregon.edu).

## Walking From Eugene–Springfield to UOMNCH

The nearest listed station is Eugene–Springfield, 1.5 miles from the University of Oregon Museum of Natural and Cultural History. The walk takes about 30 minutes from the station to the museum.

The museum stands at 1680 East 15th Avenue, making the station-to-museum journey a substantial walk rather than a short transfer. Drivers who park near the station can use the same 1.5-mile, 30-minute walking connection to reach the site.
