Directions and Parking Locations

Directions:

From I-95: take the Glades Rd. exit in Boca Raton and head east.

At the West University Drive / NW 10th Ave. interchange, turn left onto W. Univ. Dr.

The road will turn eastwards and you will see the stadium on the left. As you drive up to it, you will see the Recreation and Fitness Center on the right. Take the parking lot entrance immediately after the Rec. Center and park in Lot 4 with the red lines. The Observatory is on the top floor of the Science Building in room 434.

Parking:

FAU tag holders    can regularly park in Lot 4 after 6 p.m. for night observations. The parking restriction of faculty and staff only for the Lot ends then.

Visitors to FAU's campus    who want to attend a public viewing night observation, parking is now permitted to you in the same Lot 4, just outside the Observatory, from 6:30 p.m. to 2:30 a.m.

A map of the Campus with parking information came be found at this link here.    We are on the eastside of the roof of building 43, which appears near the center of the map. A closer view of the new parking lots and roads can be accessed at this link here.
