First United Methodist Preschool is located on Lavaca Street & 12th Street on the west side of the Capitol in downtown Austin.
The church’s physical address is 1201 Lavaca Street, but our parking lot is accessed from Colorado Street between 12th and 13th Streets. (You may use 1220 Colorado Street in navigating to our parking lot.) It is the only driveway on the block and it is a surface parking lot, not a parking garage. Our main door is located in the parking lot on the north side of the building and has a brown awning.
FUMP is located at a Capitol MetroRapid stop, Austin’s newest line of urban transportation. The MetroRapid boasts of wi-fi, smartphone ticketing and arrival times, stroller accessibility (no steps!), and green light control to get you there faster. Also, it is FREE if you show a University of Texas, Austin Community College, or City of Austin Employee ID. Find more information about routes and schedules on the CAPMETRO website.
