Starting October 25, 2022, the parking lot between the Austin History Center (AHC) and the Faulk Building will be closed. Please park across the street in the 700 Lavaca parking garage.  The only entrance is on Guadalupe (on the left, just before the light at 8th Street). Park in any unmarked space and the AHC will give you a validation ticket at the Reference Desk. 

If you have a disabled hang tag or license plate, you do not have to pay the parking meters, and there is no time limit.

You can use the ParkMe website or app to find parking spots and information about costs. Also see the City of Austin's Paid Parking site for more information. 

Temporary Closure

Beginning August 13, 2023, the Austin History Center will be closed to the public on Mondays and Tuesdays, due to current and pending construction, repairs, and relocation efforts happening at the John Henry Faulk and Austin History Center campus.  If you have a question, please email the Austin History Center at austin.historycenter@austintexas.gov or leave a voicemail at 512-974-7480. They will respond to all inquiries as soon as possible.
