Parking for Resilience Rising: Community Yoga, Henry Bacon Ball Field
Parking is available for the National Mall memorials but they require you park and walk into Henry Bacon Ball Field where the future Global War on Terrorism Memorial will be located.
Here are the best suggestions for closest parking to Henry Bacon Ball Field:
- Ohio Drive SW: nearest practical street parking area, with metered on-street parking. There is also limited free day-long parking.
- Lots A, B, and C south of the Thomas Jefferson Memorial is another parking option.
- Constitution Avenue another nearby option, but parking there is subject to rush-hour restrictions and meter rules.
- Henry Bacon Drive NW: this is the road by the memorial area, but it is not usually where you should expect easy public parking; it’s more of an access road near the field.
There are Parking garages and lots nearby operated by Park Whiz.
- Ronald Reagan Building Garage, 1300 Pennsylvania Ave NW — about 0.2 miles away.
- 801 Pennsylvania Ave NW Garage (Lot 405) — about 0.2 miles away
- 1101 Pennsylvania Ave NW Garage — about 0.2 miles away
- 701 Pennsylvania Ave NW Garage (Lot 404) — about 0.3 miles away.
Attire and Conduct
Skyline Social

Community Yoga (at the GWOT Memorial Site)
- Please wear appropriate yoga clothing that allows for movement, i.e. yoga pants/shorts, tank tops or t-shirts.
- Please bring your yoga mat
- Please bring your own water bottles as it is warm in June in Washington
- Please be mindful of the site: this is a carry-on/carry-off site and we aim to leave it cleaner than we found it.
