Museum of Arts and Design

At 2 Columbus Circle, the Museum of Arts and Design showcases contemporary craft, art, and design with rotating exhibitions and programs that make it a standout stop at the southwest corner of Central Park. The area around Columbus Circle and Midtown West is consistently busy, so having a plan for arrival and parking keeps your visit smooth and stress free. Reserving parking near Museum of Arts and Design lets you head straight inside rather than circling crowded blocks.

The museum does not offer on site public parking, and the neighborhood relies on a mix of private garages and limited metered street spaces. Street parking is scarce, often time limited, and curb space is shared with bus lanes, loading zones, and bike lanes, so signs must be read carefully and rules vary block by block. Booking in advance helps you secure a convenient, secure spot and avoid last minute hassles, and you should always confirm current rules and guidance from official sources before you drive.
