To the Downtown Site: (with convenient parking)
From Rte. 290 in downtown Worcester take Exit 16. From the west, take a left onto Central Street at bottom of ramp, from the east, take a right onto Central Street at the bottom of the ramp. Stay straight on Central Street, at the 3rd set of lights, turn left onto Commercial Street. Go straight through 1st set of lights, take immediate left into the parking garage.* Proceed to Level 5 and the walkover entrance to CitySquare takes you directly to our front door.
*This parking garage is referred to as the “yellow” garage. As you enter the garage you will notice the railings are all painted yellow. But this is deceiving because the large “P” sign outside is blue. There are 2 other garages located in succession down the street. If you park in these other garages, you must exit to the street and walk around the block to enter (see walking directions.)
Hourly rates apply for all parking garages. If there is an event at the DCU Center, please bring your ticket into the Center with you and we can stamp it so that the normal rates will be applied – not the event rates.

Walk to courtyard entrance on Commercial Street at Foothills Theater, enter by Subway shop, and proceed up escalator to 2nd floor. QCC Training & Education Center is at top of escalator.

Metered parking is available at the Worcester Public Library Main Branch on Salem Street (2 blocks south) or on the surrounding streets of downtown Worcester CitySquare (Commercial Street, Pearl Street, Foster Street, and Exchange Street.)
