Park Place Garage

Park. Pay. Walk Away.

Park Place Garage is Now Gateless!

Park Place Garage now features a gateless entry/exit system to make parking more convenient for you.

Patrons using Park Place Garage, located at One Park Place off Westgate Circle, can now enter and exit the garage without pulling a ticket, swiping a credit card, or waiting for a gate to lift.

Upon arriving at Park Place Garage, patrons will find there is no gate blocking their entrance. Simply drive in and park in a space. Cameras at the entrance feature license plate readers (LPRs) that take a picture of each vehicle’s license plate. After navigating to a parking spot, you have 20 minutes to pay for parking through the Parking.com app (Apple or Android), text-to-pay, QR code, Parkmobile (Apple or Android), or at a pay station kiosk that accepts credit cards. All methods of payment require a license plate number for vehicle identification.

If using smartphone options, extend parking time via the app or text. For the most convenient experience as an hourly parker (particularly regular or semi-regular customers such as residents), establishing a Parking.com account and enabling automatic payment allows you to enter and exit freely, charging the user for the time parked after applying any validation. This makes parking similar to the way an EZ Pass works.

When you’re ready to leave the garage, simply exit. You will no longer need to feed a ticket or credit card into an exit machine. Upon exit, the LPR calculates and verifies that you paid for the amount of parking used.

Employee Discount 

Park Place garage offers all day parking for $3 with validations that are issued monthly. Downtown business managers and owners must secure validations for employees. Employees can ride the Free Shuttle from Park Place to points downtown. To secure validations, please email annapolisparking@spplus.com and allow two business days for validations to be printed. Alternatively, please visit our office at 60 West Street Monday through Friday, 8AM – 4PM to request validations.

Here's How it Works

  1. Drive into the garage. No need to stop to get a ticket. 
  2. License plate is recorded by the License Plate Readers at the entrance
  3. Park in your favorite parking spot. 
  4. Payment is required within 20 minutes of entering the garage (Scan QR or text to pay, use the Parking.com app, ParkMobile, or Pay Kiosk)
  5. Walk Away! (pay on the app or text and you’ll get a reminder when your time is about to expire. You can then extend your time or head back to your vehicle). 
  6. Ready to leave? No gate. No ticket. No hassle. Just scoot!
  7. License plate is recorded on exit to verify payment.
  8. You’re back on the road. Visit again soon!

Payment Methods

  1. Scan the QR located in ground level elevator lobbies, and pedestrian exits, or Text the location code 93530 to 201-379-2616.
  2. Frequent or semi-frequent users, particularly residents who use their residential validation, set up an account at Parking.com, associate a credit card, and you will be able to enter / exit without having to set up a session with each visit.
  3. Parkers who do not wish to use their smart device may use their credit card at a paystation located in the Tower elevator vestibule located at the center of the property on the ground level.

How to Use Validations

Parking will also be easier for holders of monthly and business parking validations, participants in Park Shop & Dine, and city residents using their two-hour free parking validations. For holders of these validations, contact Annapolis Parking at annapolisparking@spplus.com or (443) 648-3087.

We will work with you to ensure the best type(s) of validations are in place for your visitors & guests, depending on the use case. For example, a QR code, scanned by the parker, can be used to discount their parking by tapping the blue button in Step 5, below. These can be distributed by the participating organization in person, or emailed to the parker. *Note: a parker will need to scan a validation QR code with their mobile device, and thus need to have access to it separately from within their email (printed or able to be scanned from another device).

Alternatively, we can work with your team to set up a Host Pass: a dedicated portal for you to validate parking for your guests online.

Validations steps

Enforcement

In order to ensure compliance with the new system, we will issue parking citations for failure to pay. We currently work for the City to issue violations for on-street parking, and we will be extending this capability into the off-street parking facilities. As at a metered parking space, the fine for a failure to pay is $50, and the citation will follow the normal flow as dictated by city code.
