Parking Information

Where to park when visiting BAMSL...

There are a variety of parking garages, surface lots, and meters on the street near BAMSL’s 555 Washington headquarters. To view a map of all parking opportunities in downtown St. Louis, click HERE.

But, here are our personal recommendations. Washington Avenue, in front of our building, accessed from Broadway, has several meters you can park at for short visits. Lucas Street, just behind our building, accessed from 6th Street, has several meters you can park at for short visits. There is a surface lot (#61 on the map) at 6th and Lucas, and the St. Louis Centre East garage (#58) on the south side of 6th and Washington, plus parking at the Missouri Athletic Club’s (MAC) surface lot is also convenient.

Location Type
Washington Ave (north side of road) between 6th & Broadway Meters
Lucas Ave (south side of road) between 6th & Broadway Meters
6th St between Convention & Lucas Surface Lot
St. Louis Centre East Garage
Missouri Athletic Club Surface Lot

Honoring the Judiciary
March 1, 2021

Traditionally, the March issue of the St. Louis Lawyer magazine is devoted to highlighting and honoring the judges from the metropolitan region who retired the previous year. The issue normally provides a look at each judge's career and previews the Judicial Retirement Dinner to be held in their honor each March. Well, we all know that 2020 and now 2021 are not normal years for conducting BAMSL’s usual events and programming.
