Opening day Arrival Instructions
Welcome to Gonzaga! Friday, August 29th 2014 is the first day new students can move in to residence halls. Below the instructions please note there is a map for you refer to. Two major changes in traffic flow on the university campus will allow easy access for unloading and parking:
– Cincinnati Street from the Centennial trail to Desmet Avenue shall only be a northbound one-way street;
– Desmet Avenue from Cincinnati to Hamilton Street shall only be an eastbound one-way street to allow egress for departing vehicles. To access Cincinnati Street, you must turn west onto Spokane Falls Boulevard from Hamilton Street and then turn north onto Cincinnati Street.
In order to reduce the wait time for students to unload their belongings; we recommend that after you have completed unloading your vehicle you park your vehicle in the parking garage located at Desmet and Cincinnati, any Gonzaga-owned parking lot, or street parking; and then finish moving into your respective residence hall.
