About this Location

Facility Overview

Larchmont Commons Shopping Center – Parking Lot 2 offers an expansive, convenient surface parking option situated at 3111 NJ-38 in Mount Laurel Township, New Jersey. Positioned in Burlington County along one of the region's primary retail and commuter corridors, this well-maintained open-air lot provides direct, ground-level access to the shopping center's lively mix of national retailers, fitness facilities, and fast-casual eateries. The layout features wide two-way driving aisles and distinct row striping designed to facilitate smooth maneuvering and stress-free parking. Because the facility is entirely outdoor and single-level, it boasts unrestricted vertical clearance, making it exceptionally well-suited not only for standard sedans, compacts, and crossovers, but also for lifted pickup trucks, full-size SUVs, commercial work vans, and high-roof conversion vans that cannot fit into standard covered parking garages.

Visitor & Driver Tips

During the weekday evening rush (4:30 PM to 6:30 PM) and weekend midday periods, Route 38 experiences increased traffic volume. If you intend to head westbound toward Moorestown or I-295 upon leaving, exiting via the Ark Road intersection with its traffic signal is often significantly faster and safer than making an unsignalized left turn across Route 38. Exercise caution in front of the drive-thru queues near Starbucks and fast-food locations where moving traffic can slow down. For the fastest entrance and exit during peak hours, park in the central or outer bays of Lot 2, which remain uncrowded and afford plenty of room to back out and exit smoothly.
