Public transportation to the African Burial Ground National Monument is strongly recommended. Driving and parking in Lower Manhattan can be difficult. Generally, on-street parking is not available. Any available parking spaces are metered. Parking regulations are vigorously enforced. Violators are ticketed and towed. Pay parking is available at garages in the area, but is costly.
If you must drive,
1. On the east side of Manhattan - leave Franklin Delano Roosevelt (FDR) Drive at the City Hall exit. Proceed west on surface streets to Broadway. The African Burial Ground is located just north of City Hall at 290 Broadway.
2. On the west side of Manhattan - leave the West Side Highway/West Street at Chambers Street. Drive east on surface streets until you reach Broadway. The African Burial Ground is located just north of City Hall at 290 Broadway.
