Free Parking on Sunday Mornings
When attending church at Wesley on Sunday mornings, there is free parking in two locations:
- Wesley has a parking lot behind the church. Entrance to the lot is off 1st Avenue
(a one-way north-bound street). However, parking is limited in this lot and is
shared with the Convention Center. Please be sure to not
park in any spaces signed for the Convention Center.
- Wesley also provides free parking on Sunday mornings in the underground Convention Center Parking Ramp. There are two entrances to the
parking ramp. One is on 12th Street (an east-bound one-way street) between Marquette
(1st Avenue) and 2nd Avenue. The other is on 2nd Avenue between 12th Street and Marquette.
When you enter the lot, take a ticket, sign your name and Wesley Church on
the back, and immediately hand it to the attendant. The attendant will not collect any money
from you. Wesley pays a reduced rate for this parking and if you would like to
reimburse the church, you can pay in the church office. You may park
anywhere in the ramp on any level. To reach Wesley Church from the
ramp, go to Elevator 1 and press PL
(Plaza). As you step out of the elevator, Wesley Church is visible to
the left across the street. You can also take the elevator to the
Skyway level and cross the street in the skyway.
When the Convention Center lot is full as occurs about 2 to 3 times a
year, you may want to park in any of the other nearby parking ramps, which
are shown on the map. The least expensive ramp is at the Hyatt
Hotel. Others are the Regal Hotel (across the street from the Hyatt)
and Orchestra Hall Parking Ramp. These all require payment.
