EVENT PARKING We are located in the Superior Courthouse on the South East corner of Truxtun & Chester on the third floor. Parking downtown is often difficult to find. There is parking behind the Justice Building (formerly Municipal Court Building) which is on the corner of Truxtun & L . Most of this parking is 2 hour, with some unlimited parking. There is more unlimited parking on L Street between Truxtun and California. This is the best place to find parking for the Courthouses.
