Up: Workshops at the Geometry Center

Transportation to the Center:

The Geometry Center is located on the West Bank campus of the University of Minnesota, about a 15-minute walk from the main campus on the East Bank, on the 5th floor of the West Bank Office Building. This building is a large concrete-and-glass structure overlooking I-35W. It has red strips and "University of Minnesota" in large red letters on the side.

There are several ways to get to the Geometry Center from the Minneapolis/St. Paul airport:

Taxi cab, costing approximately $20.00-$25.00.
A shuttle van run by Airport Express will take you to your hotel for $10.00 (or $15.50 round trip). Arrangements for the van can be made at the Ground Transportation Desk on the baggage-claim level.
The route #7 local city bus (MCTO) runs every 20 to 30 minutes (4:00 am until midnight) and passes by the Geometry Center. Exit the airport on the baggage-claim level at the exit marked with the city bus sign. Follow the signs to the bus stop and take the #7 headed for downtown Minneapolis (not the one to the Mall of America). The cost is $1.25 during rush hour ($1.00 off-peak hours). The driver can not make change. The bus takes about 45 minutes to get Washington and 12th Street, where you should get off for the Geometry Center.

More detail instructions are available for how to get to the Center by:

Walking or biking from the East Bank campus
Bus from downtown or the Airport
Car from the airport, I-35W or I-94
