Facility Overview
The 1399 Park Ave. Garage is a modern, professional parking facility located in the vibrant heart of East Harlem, New York. Situated within a prestigious 23-story residential tower, this garage offers an essential, secure, and covered parking solution in a neighborhood where street parking is notoriously difficult to find. The facility operates as a valet-managed garage, ensuring that visitors can simply drop off their keys with trained staff and proceed to their destinations without the stress of navigating tight turns or searching for a spot in a busy urban environment.
Please note that this facility has strict vehicle size classifications. While it easily accommodates standard passenger sedans, drivers with SUVs, minivans, exotic or luxury vehicles, and oversized trucks must select the appropriate vehicle type during booking to avoid significant on-site surcharges or service refusal. High-roof commercial vans and flatbed trucks are generally not accepted.
