Cowin Auditorium

Cowin Auditorium sits inside Teachers College at Columbia University in Morningside Heights, a 587‑seat venue known for lectures, academic conferences, film screenings, and cultural performances. The surrounding campus blocks along Broadway and Amsterdam Avenue are lively and can be congested, so booking parking in advance helps you arrive on time and make the most of your visit.

On‑street options in this area include metered and non‑metered spaces governed by New York City rules like Alternate Side Parking, no double parking, the citywide tow‑away zone, and the 15‑foot fire‑hydrant clearance, which means open curb space can be limited and turnover is frequent. Because the auditorium is within a university complex, campus garages generally prioritize eligible affiliates rather than the public, making parking near Cowin Auditorium easier when you reserve ahead and plan your route. Always review the latest official city and campus guidance before you go to ensure a smooth, stress‑free arrival.
