- There is parking directly behind the house as well as a few spots in front of the house along Stadium Drive. There are enough spots for every member in the house to park (54 members living in the house). However, parking permits are $400 and when it's already costing $6,000 to live in the house and another $3,000 for food there are several people opting out of buying the permit. Members can also park in The Pit (the parking lot right next to Razorback Stadium) for something like $100.
-Vball and bball.... well.. not as of yet. We don't have any plans to put in a volleyball or basketball court. There are several fraternities on the Row that do have volleyball areas, but none (that i know of) with a bball court. However, the HPER (the student athletic facility) is less than 2 minutes from the new house, and it has plenty of basketball courts. The intramural fields also have very nice vball areas and is a 10 minute walk from the house.
There IS room for a volleyball area, but I don't know as of yet that they are planning on putting one in.
As you can imagine, with the U of A being built on a hill there is very limited space. Add to that the fact that we are on Fraternity Row and right next to the football stadium... and you can imagine why it is difficult to put in vball and bball areas. But, maybe in time...
