Directions

Approaching from the east along Ft. Riley Boulevard, turn left at Juliette Ave., cross the railroad tracks and make an immediate right. Follow Riley Lane past 9th Street. St. Mary Magdalene House is on the right.

Approaching from the west along Ft. Riley Boulevard, turn right at 10th Street (near Howie's Recycling), cross the railroad tracks and make an immediate left. Riley Lane at 10th Street appears to be an alley or driveway (sometimes obscured by the trailer of a landscaping truck) directly opposite Pottawatomie Ave. Signs for both Riley Lane and Pottawatomie Ave. are on the same pole, but the sign for Riley Lane is hidden by another utility pole until one has almost reached the intersection. St. Mary Magdalene House is on the left.

If our parking lot is full, please park on 9th Street, rather than in the parking areas belonging to neighboring houses or buildings.
