Parking

There is street parking near and around the Verdi Club.  However, due to a recent history of break-ins on Hampshire St.  between 17th St. and Mariposa St., we strongly recommend you avoid parking on that block.  Instead, we suggest parking on better-lit and more heavily traveled streets such as Potrero Ave., Mariposa St., and 16th St.

And as always, to discourage break-ins, please don’t leave valuables (visible or not) in your unattended vehicles.

Public Transit

Easy access to public transportation.  Close (within a 20-minute walk) to MUNI bus routes 9, 12, 14, 19, 22, 27, 33, 55, 90 (owl), and the 16th St. Mission BART station.
