All open viewings are held at the telescope dome on the G. Jack Bradley Observation Deck, located on the west side of the college’s Nature Study Area, off Kean Avenue near 107th Street. Observers can park near the college’s tennis courts and then walk on the path to the observation deck.

Because of the outdoor location of the telescope, observers are reminded to dress for the weather and bring binoculars if they have them.
