Parking Information
Parking in Downtown Berkeley can be tricky, and usually requires either a little exploring, or a little money. All the on-street parking in ICSI's immediate vicinity is metered and therefore time-limited.
Although much of Berkeley's street parking is zoned for local residential use, there are zones where you can find all-day parking on the street, and these areas are marked on the map above with blue. Please note that these spots are only recommendations, so make sure to check for street signs regarding time limits and street sweeping to make sure it is a valid parking spot.
There are two garages and two parking lots within a short walk of ICSI.
