MAP

The map below contains important sites such as the conference venue, hotel, and shuttle pick up and drop off points.

Driving and parking

With the grand opening of the nearby Obama Presidential Center on June 19 there will be many associated road closures in the preceding week including during the two days of ARDM-26.

In particular, much of the Midway Plaisance will be closed to traffic and parking on the days of the event.

We recommend reviewing the road closures found here, arriving early, and taking a shuttle or public transit if  possible.

Parking may still be found on many nearby streets south of the Midway.  The nearest parking garage is at 61st and Kimbark (accessed via 60th Street).  Details about parking and location of garages can be found here.
