*** PARKING * DIRECTIONS * SECURITY ***

If you drive, go North on Olive Street and turn left into the last driveway of the Parking Structure (the entrance without any bollards) and proceed up the ramp. Stay to the left and speak to the police officer. Park in any unmarked parking spaces on Levels P3 thru P6.

After parking your car, proceed to elevator. Push "1" to get to the security check-point lobby. After you have cleared security, [see Step 4 this page] go through the turnstile using your badge, to interior elevator, then proceed to the 4th Floor.

For Pedestrians, there is ONLY one (1) entrance. ONLY the Olive Street entrance is open on Saturday.

*** ALLOW TIME FOR SECURITY CHECK IN TO OCCUR IN YOUR PLANS ***

Parking is HIGH FEDERAL SECURITY. They search your trunk, under the car etc. Be prepared to stop, identify yourself and be searched. After entering the building you will be logged in and may be searched again. [On the other hand, once in the lecture hall, you are very, very safe.]

Visitor Parking at LA Branch | JAMA

Step 1:

To find the parking lot entrance, you turn off of Olympic onto Olive. For your reference, the building at the corner of Olympic and Olive is the former Fed building (gray marble) which has been converted to residential lofts called The Reserve.

Step 2:

Once you pass this building, ours is next door (brown marble). Stay in the far left lane on Olive and the parking entrance is the last opening of our building - fourth driveway; the other entrances are for deliveries.

Step 3:

Proceed up the ramp, stay to the left and stop at the guard station. Notify the Federal Reserve Police Officer the reason for your visit. The Police Officer will already have a manifest with your arrival information. After confirming the identity of the vehicle occupants, our Police Officer will conduct a brief undercarriage search of your vehicle and will instruct which floor to park.

Step 4:

Once you park, take the elevator to the first floor. Everyone entering the Bank will be required to walk through the metal detector and all carried items will be screened by use of an x-ray machine. Items determined to be weapons will not be permitted (eg.: guns, knives, pepper spray, mace, etc.). Anyone found to be in possession of illegal weapons will be subject to arrest. In addition, cameras are not permitted inside the building.

Police Services will notify your point of contact of your arrival. Your contact will meet you at the entrance and escort you into the building.

Reminder:

1. All visitors must provide government-issued photo identification (e.g. valid passport, driver's license, or state-issued identification card) that matches their name as it appears on the manifest.
2. All visitors must have confirmed prior arrangements for their visit with their LA Branch contact in order to receive entrance into the building.
3. We have security checks similar to those at airports.
