Review #989 2026-059…read more Old Town Pasadena no longer has garages that offer free parking for the 1st 90 minutes. De Lacey Garage is 1 of 3 "Park & Walk" city-owned garages that offers the cheapest rates in the area; Schoolhouse Garage (33 E. Green St.) & Marriott Garage (48 N. Raymond Ave.) are the other 2 sister garages. Both De Lacey & Schoolhouse (1 block east) Garages are more centrally located in Old Town, whereas Marriott Garage is at the edge across from Memorial Park. Rates (as of April 2026): $1: 1st 2 hours $2/hour thereafter $12 daily maximum Or if you truly don't want to pay, you could walk a few blocks west & park at Ralph's (320 W. Colorado Blvd.); however, I'm not sure how vigilant the supermarket is about towing if you're not a customer. When I was a student at Pasadena City College, there was free street parking & limited free time in parking garages in Old Town Pasadena. Since 07/2022, the longstanding 1st 90 minutes of free parking in city-owned parking garages were eliminated & a new policy was implemented to $1 for the 1st 2-hours to fund maintenance & repairs. I was in the area for a Yelp event & wasn't sure if I can find free parking nearby & with my time constraints to return in time for my daughter's swim meet, it was easier to use a parking garage. Luckily, De Lacey Garage is just around the corner of Lather so it was perfect! When I returned to my car, I had a hard time spotting the payment kiosk(s) since there's notices that state you need to pay first before attempting to exit. There was no kiosk by the stairs & elevator, which would be a sensible location to place a kiosk since it's an exit point. I looked at both ends & didn't see one, so I drove to the exit & paid there. It wasn't until I checked the reviews that there's only 1 payment kiosk & it's located at the ground level. If you're planning to dine or shop in Old Town Pasadena, I recommend parking here at De Lacey Garage or Schoolhouse Garage; they're centrally located & cheaper than metered parking.

At that point, there is no difference between this lot and the one Colorado lot (my other preferred spot in the area). Making a review post because the other info here is outdated. Other than this, it comes down from four stars to three stars since the elevators are down at the moment (August 2025); therefore, if you have accessibility issues that could be an issue.

Review #938 2026-002…read more I was in the area for a belated New Year's Day lunch with my brother at Auntie Qiu Kitchen. The restaurant doesn't have parking, though there's some street parking on Main St. & the adjacent streets. It was a rainy day & I didn't want to park too far away. Luckily, First Street Parking Structure sits just behind the restaurant, off 1st & Main Sts., though we entered from Garfield Ave. The free parking structure offers 4 hours of parking from 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM, & it's not gated or guarded so not sure what happens if you extend the time limit or park before/after business hours. There's other signage that says parking is for business patrons only, all others will be towed & to call (626) 570-5168 for towed cars. I didn't bother waiting for spaces to open up, & went straight to the roof for parking since it was during lunch rush. It was about 1/2 full on that last stretch. I think there's 4 levels of parking? The sky was dark & gloomy, yet the structure wasn't well-lit; other reviewers cautioned safety concerns due to theft, lack of lighting, & loitering. I'm glad my car was still in one piece when I was done with lunch. Whew! There's a pocket garden just north of the structure, but I'm not sure if it's a part of First Street Parking Structure. It has a couple of benches, a couple of citrus trees (possibly lemon or orange?), & a short walkway. The structure is in a prime location surrounded by a dozen plus restaurants & other businesses, so it's convenient but concerning since it's not that visible with foot traffic & may pose safety issues. I might try for the surrounding area for the 2-hr. street parking when the weather's better.

My dad was driving, but he doesn't speak much English, so my sister rolled down the window and spoke in English for him. Normal situation, right? Nope. Romo decides to be rude and hostile for no reason and says, "Why are you talking? Does the driver not speak?" like my dad is mute and like we're doing something wrong. Then he gives us an insulting look. What the fuck? Families translate for each other all the time. It's not your job to judge who's speaking, just do your job and be respectful. I don't care about a "we're sorry" response. I want Disney to actually address this so he doesn't treat other guests like that

Luckily, there are signs on Huntington Blvd that led me to a good size public parking lot. And it's FREE. Yay! Thank you!! Public parking lot is between S Santa Anita Ave and S First St from west to east AND Huntington Dr and Wheeler Ave from south to north. There is an entry way that you drive into to get to the parking lot between Huntington Dr and Wheeler Ave. Please do read the signs as on certain days parking is 4 hours only between 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM.

I tried to dispute a charge on my debit that turned into a ticket for a vehicle that is in no way connected to me for license plate AN28PL. I didn't want to be held responsible for a car that I did not have any connection to and never even drove, much less into this parking lot owned by Metropolis. They don't seem to have understood the fact that, whether this was a rental car or not, this was NOT MY CAR, therefore, NOT MY TICKET. They said it was because I couldn't produce a rental agreement with the matching license plate to prove that it wasn't my car. How can I do that if I have no clue whose car that is, how it got connected to my phone number, and where the car now exists??? I don't even know if it was actually a rental car. They couldn't provide any proof that the car was connected to me besides my phone number somehow getting connected to it without my permission. Dumb. I ended up having to dispute it with my bank, instead, since they were so obstinate and also seemingly did not understand what I was talking about.

However, there are parking enforcers, so don't park here longer than 4 hours or else you'll get a ticket. Better yet, don't leave your car here overnight, your car will totally get towed. The parking spaces are pretty wide and big. On the first floor, it's only 20 minute parking. So if you are parking longer than 20 minutes, move your car elsewhere or else you'll get a ticket. Don't say I didn't warn you.
