Faculty, staff, students, and guests are covered by the university’s parking service, which also provides garage rates and validation tickets (services.duq.edu). For visitors attending Mary Pappert School of Music events, the university directs drivers to the Forbes Avenue Parking Garage and Locust Street Parking Garage (duq.edu). The university’s published parking guidelines charge $10 for 0 to 2 hours, $14 for 2 to 12 hours, and $20 for 12 to 24 hours (duq.edu). The event rate is $10 to $50, while a lost ticket costs $40 (duq.edu). The Forbes Avenue garage is at 1180 Forbes Avenue, Pittsburgh, PA 15219 (duq.edu). ## When Parking Around Duquesne Is Hardest Parking demand rises around campus events, with the university publishing a separate event rate of $10 to $50 for parking (duq.edu). Music events at the Mary Pappert School of Music direct visitors toward the Forbes Avenue and Locust Street garages, making those facilities the practical focus for event arrivals (duq.edu). Students and staff also compete for permit spaces during the academic year because Duquesne provides dedicated permit parking across Forbes Garage, Locust Garage, campus surface parking, and Chatham locations (services.duq.edu). Drivers heading to an event or campus appointment should allow time to use the university’s designated facilities rather than relying on nearby curb space.

For a driver comparing options, the university also lists an event rate of $10 to $50 and a $40 lost-ticket charge (duq.edu). The Forbes Avenue garage is located at 1180 Forbes Avenue, Pittsburgh, PA 15219 (duq.edu), and visitors attending Mary Pappert School of Music events are directed to both the Forbes Avenue and Locust Street garages (duq.edu). ## Parksy Spaces Near Duquesne University Parksy lists a prime garage parking space in Pittsburgh, 265 yd from the campus, at $40 a day. The covered parking garage at 44 Bigelow Sq. is 272 yd away and costs $16.94 a day, making it the lower-priced choice for a student, staff member, or visitor who needs nearby covered parking. The secure outdoor parking space at the Forbes & Grant Lot is 280 yd away and costs $380 a month.
