Directions to the Rudd Center

The UConn Rudd Center's office is located in the One Constitution Plaza building in Hartford, Connecticut.

UConn faculty, staff, and students who purchase parking permits for the Storrs or Regional campuses may park in the CT Convention Center for no additional charge.

All other visitors should get driving directions to the Connecticut Science Center and park in their garage. Then, bring your garage ticket with you to the Rudd Center so we can validate it.

After parking, use the elevators in the garage to get to the CT Science Center lobby. From the lobby, use the doors by Blue Chip Creamery to exit the Science Center onto Mortensen Riverfront Plaza. Turn left and walk across the bridge past Nassau Financial Group. Then, take a right to use another bridge to cross State Street. Immediately after crossing the second bridge, you will see a staircase to your left. Take this staircase down to the road and turn right. The building immediately on your right is One Constitution Plaza.

Ring the bell to notify security to unlock the door. Then, enter the building and check in with the front desk. They will send you to the Rudd Center’s suite on the sixth floor.
