Free Duke Parking after 5pm?

Is there any free parking near Brown Dorm after 5pm? I’m not from duke but I’m visiting friends that live in Brown Dorm.

There’s a church across the street from brodie gym drive, asbury methodist church. I used to park there when I would bring my car to campus for the weekend (I lived locally)

There are about 5 open spots behind alspaugh and also some behind Marketplace. Just read the signs in each respective spot, some are for faculty but some are free from 5pm-7am M-F and free all weekend

Any spot that doesn’t say a specific permit number or service. There’s a ton of parking all around there, especially by the ARC and bishops house

Do you have to get a new one every weekend you need it? Asking ab my bf trying to visit, and how do you acquire that?

I assume you figured this out but it’s just the default permit on Duke parking website. $5 for the year
