Located in the historic Lewis F. Powell Jr. United States Courthouse and Annex in downtown Richmond, it attracts attorneys, litigants, and visitors attending oral arguments or conducting court business. The surrounding area is a busy government and business district, so traffic along East Main Street and nearby routes can be steady throughout the workday, particularly during morning hearings and late afternoon departures.

Booking parking near US Court of Appeals Richmond in advance helps avoid circling for a spot, reduces stress on the day of your hearing or visit, and allows extra time for security screening and check-in. Visitors should always review posted signs for time limits, meter rules, and enforcement hours, and consult the court’s visitor information and local city resources for the latest guidance before they travel.
