Parking: Parking is limited as it is with all downtown venues. We recommend searching for nearby parking garages in advance for a better rate, or to use 2-hour street parking. The church is on the lower two floors of a modern, mixed-use building. Look for a modern structure with a two-story grey brick base and eight floors of reflective glass above.
