About this Location

Facility Overview

The 150 N Meramec Garage is a secure, multi-level covered parking structure located in the heart of downtown Clayton, Missouri, the bustling seat of St. Louis County government and a premier financial center. Serving the multi-tenant commercial office building at 150 North Meramec Avenue as well as the wider downtown district, the garage offers a clean, well-maintained, and sheltered environment that shields vehicles from seasonal winter snows and hot summer sun. The parking garage accommodates standard passenger sedans, crossovers, mid-size SUVs, and standard light-duty trucks. Drivers of oversized vehicles, high-roof commercial vans, lifted pickup trucks, or vehicles with roof attachments should observe the posted entrance clearance height (typically 6 feet 8 inches) to avoid clearance issues, opting for surface meter parking nearby if vehicle height exceeds posted limits.

Visitor & Driver Tips

During peak morning court call times (8:00 AM to 9:30 AM on weekdays) and weekday lunch hours, vehicular traffic along Meramec Avenue can increase significantly; arriving 10 to 15 minutes ahead of scheduled appointments ensures ample time to find a preferred parking spot. Keep your parking ticket inside your vehicle or wallet out of direct heat, and remember your parked floor level prior to leaving the garage. If dining out in the evening, check with nearby restaurants as several local establishments offer parking validation programs.
