However, with recent shutdowns of the "T" for repairs, I needed an alternative. This garage is close to theaters in the area and, in particular, to Peirce Studio, the one we needed on Liberty Ave. They have a flat rate of $8 as of this posting for evenings so it makes it comparable to best parking options. The downside was a confusing situation and the guy parking in front of me wanting me and everyone behind me to back up at the entry gate. Why? Because of signage at the entrance indicating it was full except for lease holders. Fortunately, after a few minutes of said confusion and any of us being unable to backup in traffic of pedestrians, busses, and cars, a staff member came out and simply turned the sign around so that its verbiage allowed entry. Whew! Other than that, parking was a-ok BUT I am not sure I want to be at the mercy of a sign to know whether I can or cannot park there.

The Smithfield Liberty garage is a decent option if you need to park right in the middle of…read moredowntown. The entrances on both sides make it convenient to get into, and the rates are pretty standard for the city, especially on the weekends. My only real complaint is that the layout inside is a bit tight and dated, so navigating the tight turns can be annoying during busy event hours. Overall, it gets the job done without too much fuss, but it isn't anything fancy.

Some garages in the city have one way which is nice and less chances of wrecking into someone. Especially if you have a large truck like I do, the chances are increased on smashing into someone. However the off-peak rates after 5 PM was very nice at $4 compared to some places that charge $6 and much more on flat rates on Friday - Sunday. It was simple to pay on the bottom floor, getting around wasn't as easy when you're parked around a corner, you have to walk a distance to locate an elevator. However for $4 worth it.

I looked around and there e was no parking at all except parking garages. I choose this garage as it seemed to be the closest. My experience was not so great. I went in took a ticket and drove from bottom to top many times looking for a spot with no avail. I did see a few spots but no way my big jeep grand Cherokee would fit. I drove around for about 35 minutes and was about to give up and leave then found one finally. The spot was very tight but got in. Overall was not thrilled with garage as they should have said full before entering it. I would say that the spots were seemingly for smaller cars and I also found that there were not enough handicap spots. The driving in the garage was very tight especially for a big car. I personally would stay away from this garage. I would not go again unless I had to

I like this garage. It's one of the best and cleanest and safest places to park in the city…read more There's always an attendant on duty, at least during the daytime. You must show photo ID upon entering. The parking rate is reasonable, considering its proximity to the heart of downtown. 1 hour $7 two or more is $14. (Please refer to my photo) The uniformed guard / attendant is always friendly and helpful. He's like a concierge in a hotel. He pretty much knows where to go and how to get you there. This is is my other favorite place to park after 4 p.m. and weekends. After 4 p.m. Monday through Friday and all day Saturday and Sunday, parking is only $4.. I would definitely check this place out if you need to park somewhere clean, safe and close to the heart of downtown.

I parked my vehicle in the garage once. I easily found a good parking spot on a Saturday. The floors and stairwells looked to be clean, and I did not feel concerned that anything bad would happen to me or my vehicle. Many businesses such as restaurants are within walking distance of these garages. Upon exiting, I felt surprised that the rate for several hours on a Saturday was only $1! If you look at my photos, you will see that the rates are higher on Monday through Friday. Currently, construction is occurring on Washington Road, so this garage did not have a working automated payment machine, and an employee had to process my payment. This cashier was courteous.

I park here for everywhere I go downtown. Standard day parking is always going to run you WAY too high in the city ($14 for 4+ hours, eek!). But after 4pm you're golden for a flat rate of $7. This garage is smack dab in the middle of the Cultural District. So you're in the middle of all the theaters. This is also the best place to park when you need to head over to the North Side. It's just a short walk across the bridge to PNC Park or Heinz Field for probably way cheaper than you'll find over there Listen kids, because this is the HUGE tip of the day. If you know you're going to be getting out at the same time as the other theater goers (or misc event goers) park going down so you have a better chance of getting out faster. There, aren't I nice?!

This is my go to ramp when I'm attending an event downtown. It is easy to get to and is usually…read moreeasy to get out of. During the work day the rates are high (although not any more than other downtown ramps) but after 5 it has a flat fee of $10. There are ten levels to the ramp. Going up you'll visit the odd floors and down the even. If you are parking around 5 or 6 make sure to head down and check for spots where cars may have left for the day. Watch when you are leaving, though, as it can be tough to back out. The spaces leave enough room for you to comfortably open your door and exit even when the car next to you parks close and even "compact car only" spaces seem to fit larger cars (as there are often SUVs parked there). The elevators are glass and have a view out onto 7th street while going up or down. They are fairly efficient even when crowded right after a show. You pay in the lobby and it is smart to do it before you leave rather than waiting in line after your show or event.

The walk over included passing by sketchy characters lingering around the area. The parking attendant was absent and didn't answer the help button at the exit. Our ticket was being rejected as "unreadable", and we had no recourse but to back up the ramp and try to go find someone. After a ten minute ordeal, the attendant showed up at the desk in the lobby and did something to our ticket so the machine would take it. He didn't even seem phased, like unreadable tickets are just the norm. It was $6 to park and not bad, but definitely not worth the hassle.

Not that much of a nightmare that warrants a deduction of stars, but a nightmare in terms of how fast this garage fills up. This was the first time that I utilized this garage. When I come downtown I usually go for convenience and park closer to where I need to be than where I find myself at. But after parking here I could see myself using it more often. However if you intend on attempting to use this early in the day, be advised that if you are not one of the first people, you will be out of luck. This garage fills up, and is cut off to only leases, after about 7:40 a.m. Also be careful of the curbs, I have seen people get flat tires because they get too close when pulling in. It is a fairly big garage, ample spaces to choose from. Spots available for electric car charging if you need that. Pay in the lobby or at the exit. Restrooms available if you need that. But the big selling point of this garage is the access to the T. There is a stop built right into the garage and you can get basically anywhere Downtown and North Shore for free from this stop. Park your car and go. Also has really easy access to the Parkway. It's kind of a great.
