Special Monthly Weekend-only permits are available for weekend access. Please call the Parking Manager should you be interested in a weekend parking contract.

HEIGHT RESTRICTIONS
Maximum clearance in the garage is 6'8". Please be aware that due to the low-lying sprinkler lines, there are some areas of the garage outside of the drive lanes that are lower than 6'8".

KASTLE ACCESS CARDS/FOBS
The same Kastle Access card/fob that provides access to the building and its elevators will be used to gain entrance to the different parking areas of the garage. Only those individuals having Monthly Permits will be allowed garage access and only one Access card/fob with garage access is allowed per Monthly Contract.

Please see the Parking Manager if you have a low emissions vehicle that you think may qualify.
