Visitors to the University of Houston-Downtown campus are always welcome.

The Visitor Garage is situated beneath the Welcome Center.  Access to the garage is from Girard Street. The daily parking rate is a flat fee of $10, payable by credit card only, cash payments are not accepted.

Visitor Parking for Disabled Veterans

At UHD, visitor parking is offered at no cost to disabled veterans exclusively in the Girard and Rothwell parking lots. To qualify for this benefit, veterans must ensure their vehicles are displaying either DV license plates that feature the International Symbol of Access (ISA), which is the wheelchair emblem, or a valid disabled parking placard prominently displayed from their rear view mirror. This initiative aims to provide easier access and support for those who have served.
