There is a convenient parking lot directly across Edenton Street in the Brick Building (316 West Edenton St) either in front or behind that building for a fee that must be paid at a kiosk located on the buildings side closest to Campbell Law or through a mobile app called ParkMobile. When using the app, one must input their license plate as well as CC information to pay.
