Can I park on the street?

CSC’s new theatre is downtown in the heart of the bustling legal and business district, and next door to several hotels. If you’re attending a performance, please note the instructions above; we recommend that you use one of our parking partners.

If you’re stopping by during weekday business hours to visit our office, you might snag a metered spot on the street — but watch the signs, even on weekends! On Calvert Street, metered parking is permitted only between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m., (and the meter monitors are diligent). There is towing before 10am, and tow trucks also appear right on time at 3 pm. The meters take credit cards.

On weekends and evenings, the meters are in effect on the main streets; read the meter and posted signs carefully. Most meters accept change ($2 an hour) or credit cards.

CSC’s Downtown Baltimore theatre is conveniently located near the free Charm City Circulator PURPLE ROUTE. To find the Charm City Circulator hours, schedules and route maps, CLICK HERE.
