Traffic Bollards Support Pedestrian Safety
In an effort to support safe pedestrian pathways and keep fire lanes clear for emergency vehicles, traffic control bollards are installed throughout Mies (Main) Campus. Vehicular access to Footlik Lane, our main pedestrian pathway on Dearborn Street from 31st - 35th Street, is restricted. Service delivery parking for Wishnick, Perlstein, and Alumni Halls is supported at 32nd & State Street, on the north side of Perlstein.
Refer to the Service Parking Map below to locate additional entry points. If exceptional access is required closer in proximity for major deliveries, contact Facilities at 312.567.3320.
Service Parking
