Star #1 From I-5 take the 705/City Center Exit. Once on 705, take the 21st Street Exit. Veer left at the top of the ramp, then turn right at the light onto Pacific Avenue. You'll see the museum from the off-ramp - just look for the big brick arches. There is parking located next to the building.
Star #2 If the lot next to the building is full, follow the access road behind the museum, Union, Station and the U. S. Courthouse to the next parking lot.
Star #3 If this lot is full, exit at the far end (Hood Street) and turn left. Turn left again onto Pacific Avenue, then turn right up the hill on 21st Street. Just after the railroad tracks, turn right into the Diamond Parking lot.
Star #4 Alternatively, you can drive straight up 21st to Market Street, turn right, then park in the lot located at 19th and Market.

Be prepared to pay at any of the lots listed here. Rates are posted.

From parking lots # 3 or 4, walk to the corner of 19th and look down the hill. The big arch at the bottom of the hill is the entrance to the museum. Walk straight down the hill through the University of Washington Tacoma campus.
