Admissions Daily Visitors
Proceed to the ESF Campus entrance at the south end of Irving Avenue. Due to construction of ESF’s new Gateway Center, on-campus parking for visitors is very limited. If on-campus parking is available, you will be issued a parking pass and directed to Visitor Parking. If no space is available, you will be directed to the Irving Parking Garage (directions) or another designated parking area. Construction on campus will also disrupt many sidewalk areas, so we ask that you be cautious and comply with pedestrian pathways when redirected around construction areas.
Using a GPS? Use the address 1000 Irving Ave., Syracuse, NY for the ESF campus entrance, and coordinates N43°02.213', W076°08.358' for the Irving Parking Garage entrance.
Visitors in need of handicapped parking facilities must make arrangements for on-campus parking with ESF University Police by calling (315) 470-6667.
