Where’s the best place to park when you visit the Building for Kids?

We think the most convenient place is the Mid Town Parking Ramp which you can enter from either Superior Street or Appleton Street. Pay $1 when you enter the ramp, and there’s no rushing back to a parking meter—you’re good for all day. It is handicapped and stroller accessible from all levels with an elevator.  If you park towards the Appleton Street end of the ramp, you’re only about a hundred feet from the Building for Kids entrance.
