Harborview Hall Residents – Important Move-Out Information
Due to the work on the Harborview hill road way, there will be no vehicle traffic permitted down the Harborview hill. Residents of Harborview Hall can move out using the roadway behind Towers Hall.
To access this roadway, please use Campus Road to turn into the Receiving Parking Lot (across the street from Starlight Road). Once turning into the lot, please go down the road behind Towers Hall. You will be able to park in the parking spaces outside of Harborview Hall. Once you have completed moving out, please go up the roadway behind Towers Hall and through the Receiving Parking Lot to exit campus via Campus Road. Please click here to view a campus map if needed.
