Parking at the Cinema 21
There are several good Tri-met bus lines that go very near the Cinema 21 (Buses)IF you must drive to Cinema 21:
- Fill your car with movie-lovers. Organize your own carpool whenever you drive to the theater.
- Pull right up to our front door. Provide convenient Curb Service drop-off for your Carpoolers.
- Drive 2 blocks north and 1 block west and Park inside the Legacy Good Samaritan Parking Structure at NW 22nd & Kearny.
- Stroll back to the theater. Enjoy the cafes, galleries, historic apartment buildings and Victorian houses which surround Cinema 21.
Please park only in 'Visitor/Patient' spaces, not in any spaces designated for doctors. Respect nearby residents and businesses whenever driving, parking and walking in NW Portland. Thanks!
Where Exactly is the Parking Structure?
The parking at Good Sam is at 2222 NW Kearny (NW corner, the only parking structure right on the corner). It's a covered structure on the ground level. Turn right into the covered parking structure. It is called "Parking 1". Again, do not park in reserved spots.
Unfortunately, there is no sign that says "Cinema 21 Parking".
There are signs that say you will be towed, but if you park during theater
hours you will be fine (do not leave your car there overnight or park
during weekdays). Andrew has parked there numerous times without problems.
