Cal Poly Architecture Graveyard
Head to the Poly Canyon Village on campus. You’ll want to park at the Village Drive Parking Structure. It’s a large parking lot, can’t miss it. Parking is $7 for the day and you pay at machines before leaving the ticket in your window. Standing on Village Drive at the front of the parking lot, look for a little sidewalk to the right of the parking structure. It’ll be a long path with gardens and some trees. It leads to Poly Canyon Road. Look for the yellow gate and walk past it.
