Rental FAQs

Have questions? Read through our Rental FAQs below.

How do I get to Third Space?

Third Space is located at the intersection of Liberty Heights Avenue and Auchentoroly Terrace, with the front entrance on Holmes Avenue. We are easy to find using GPS. See more information below as it relates to parking. However, if you are coming to Third Space on any given day, not for a program, there is street parking available on Holmes, which is perpendicular to Liberty Heights on the residential side of the building (not the side with Druid Hill Park and the Baltimore Zoo).

Is there parking available?

Yes! Parking specifications and directions for programming will always be provided ahead of time in registration and confirmation emails. When coming to Third Space during the day there is street parking on Holmes, which is also where the front entrance to the building is located. Third Space also has a lot located at 3515 Woodbrook Avenue, next to the firehouse. For evening and weekend programming, we use the grassy lot at Parks and People, located across the street at 2100 Liberty Heights Avenue. A parking attendant will be there to direct you where to park and point you in the direction of the 2 minute walk to our building. For select events, there will also be parking available at the lot name at the Baltimore Zoo, with a shuttle service that will take people to the entrance of Third Space.

Is the building accessible?

The main entrance to Third Space has a ramp accessible for wheelchairs, walkers, canes, and anyone else for which steps are difficult. There are bathrooms on the ground floor large enough for those who use mobility aids. There is not an elevator in the building, however a chair lift goes up to the sanctuary on the second floor, making programming in the sanctuary accessible for most. The chair lift requires the user to transfer and we do not currently have a way to bring the mobility device up to the second floor. The upper balcony of the sanctuary does not have a chair in place for access at this time, so anyone who attends a program using the chair lift will be seated on the primary floor of the sanctuary for programming. Accessibility is an important value to the Third Space team, and we are dedicated to continuing to make the space accessible as we continue our construction plan for the building.

What’s your security policy?

We take safety and belonging, which includes security, very seriously at Third Space at Shaarei Tfiloh. Our security plan is built to accommodate the variety of programs and number of people in the building and may, at times, include bag searches and other protocols in order to ensure that all who come in feel safe and cared for. If you have any additional questions or concerns, please reach out to a Third Space team member.   

What’s your food and drink policy?

Third Space at Shaarei Tfiloh will be maintaining a vegetarian kitchen. Sometimes, exceptions may be made to this policy, but would need to be certified kosher and outlined in an agreement between a program partner and the Third Space at Shaarei Tfiloh staff team. Third Space at Shaarei Tfiloh aims to meet various dietary requirements whenever possible for our participants and is committed to supporting local business. For those wishing to rent space at Third Space or are planning a program with us, you can find a list of recommended caterers on page X of our Vendor’s List (pdf). There is no food allowed in the sanctuary. Only reusable water bottles and Third Space at Shaarei Tfiloh tumblers are permitted for beverage consumption in the sanctuary. For programs and events, empty water bottles are permitted which you can fill at our water station, located in the kitchen.
