Parking for Rosen Auditorium at Brennan Library

You can park in legal spaces on the street (Maple/Central Streets, etc.) or in the Lower Winslow Lot.
Lower Winslow Lot: Enter the driveway at the Campus Police Offices. You will see several spaces on the right that say Police Parking Only, these spots are for police vehicles and police business only. The lot then turns to the left and parking is authorized in the spots that face the pool, there are approximately 12 of them. There are also several spots along the fence that faces the Barn. If you continue past the Barn there is a road that turns left and a short road to the right that ends at the athletic field. This is Berkley Place and serves as access for the lot, this is the divider between the Winslow Lot and the Mott Lot. The ending boundaries for the Lower Winslow Lot are the telephone pole on the pool side of the lot and the fenced in play area of the Barn Daycare Center on the right side.
Please call Campus Police office with any questions at (617) 243-2269.
