Parking Information
UPC parking guide
One of the benefits of UPC's location is the convenience and proximity to the University of Washington. However, this prime, inner-city location comes with its share of parking challenges. A list of options is below. We encourage you to look on these alternatives as a stewardship opportunity, guiding the use of our limited parking resources to benefit the most needy.
A UPC parking sticker or parking pass is required for all UPC lots. These are available from the Welcome Kiosk. Parking is available to those visiting UPC on church business only; there is no overnight parking, no UW parking and all UPC lots open at 7 am and close at 10 pm daily.
