Announcement
State Bar Operations During World Cup (June 11–July 19)
Members may continue to park at the Bar Center at no cost. However, due to increased demand and the parking deck being open to the public during this time, parking will be available on a first-come, first-served basis. We encourage you to plan accordingly, as parking availability cannot be guaranteed. Please be sure to bring your Bar Card and a valid ID, as you may be asked to present them for entry.
- All parking deck elevators will be out of service on Saturday, June 20, for regularly scheduled testing. Anyone parking in the deck that day must use the stairs. If you are planning to use the deck that day, try to park on levels two/three, closest to the exits, in order to minimize walking.
