Parking Directions to Campus Taxicabs Area Hotels
Parking Visitor Parking is in South Garage. Your parking fee will be covered; however, you will need to take the parking pass from the machine to get into the garage. During the Fair, you will turn that parking pass in and receive a pre-paid pass from Christy Liff or Denise Shipley so you can exit the garage. DOWNLOAD CAMPUS MAP Directions to JHU’s Homewood Campus
By Car from the South on I-95 (BWI Airport, Washington, D.C.) Take I-95 North to exit 53 (I-395 Downtown). Stay in the right lane. As I-395 ends you will see Oriole Park at Camden Yards in front of you on your left. Make a right turn onto Pratt St.; proceed three blocks to N. Charles St. Turn left onto N. Charles St. and stay straight for about three miles. Turn left onto 29th St. Move into the right lane and bear right after the next traffic light onto Howard St. Immediately after bearing right, make sure you are in the left-hand turning lane. Turn left at the traffic island onto Wyman Park Dr. Continue on Wyman Park Dr. to the third driveway on the right, and enter the underground visitor parking lot, the South Garage. From Maryland 295 (the Baltimore-Washington Parkway): Entering Baltimore, the parkway becomes Russell Street. Stay on Russell Street until (with the new M&T Bank Stadium to your right and Oriole Park at Camden Yards looming before you) you reach the right-hand exit marked Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard (look carefully for this; the signs are small). This exit will put you very briefly on a service road parallel to Russell Street. Stay to the left and take the ramp marked Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard. Follow the directions (below) from Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard. Fom Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard: Take King Boulevard north until it ends at Howard Street (remain in one of the middle lanes of King Boulevard to avoid a premature forced right or left turn). Turn left at Howard Street and proceed about 2 miles. One block past 29th Street, turn left at the traffic island (just before the Baltimore Museum of Art) onto Wyman Park Drive. Go past two entrances on the right, at the third entrance, South Garage, make a right.
From the Jones Falls Expressway (I-83) southbound: Take the 28th Street exit and go left on 28th Street. Turn left on North Howard Street. One block past 29th Street, turn left at the traffic island (just before the Baltimore Museum of Art) onto Wyman Park Drive. Go past two entrances on the right, at the third entrance, South Garage, make a right.
From Baltimore's Penn Station: If you opt to take a taxi from Penn Station to the Homewood campus, the fee should be quite modest. The university is very close to the train station. Taxicabs:
For those who would like to use taxicabs as a means of transportation, below are some names of companies in the area. When scheduling a pick-up or drop-off, please tell them to go to Mason Hall (Building #1 on the map). They will make a right off of Wyman Park Drive into the first open driveway on campus which is known as South Gate. When scheduling a pick-up or drop-off, it may help to give them a specific time. If taking a taxi directly from the airport or Penn Station (train station), it may be wise to coordinate with the driver a return ride pick-up.
