Georgia Tech Parking Info
The venue for Atlanta Service Jam 2016 is on the Georgia Institute of Technology campus at the College of Architecture building. It’s walkable from various Midtown locations, or you can catch the free Tech Trolley from the Midtown MARTA stop. Visit the Parking and Transportation Services site for times and map.
If you plan to drive there are a number of options. On Friday we recommend trying to find a metered spot along Brittain Dr NW ($2/hour) or the visitor parking slightly further away on Ferst DR NW (also $2/hour). On Saturday a full day of parking is $15 at the Ferst Dr NW lot, or try Tech Square on 5th Street which is also $15 for the whole day and closer to Midtown.
