About this Location

Facility Overview

The parking garage at 19 Bakery Square Blvd serves as the primary parking facility for Bakery Square, Pittsburgh\'s premier tech, retail, and mixed-use lifestyle hub situated on the border of the East Liberty, Shadyside, and Larimer neighborhoods. This modern, multi-level covered parking garage offers hundreds of well-lit, weather-protected parking spaces organized with intuitive digital space counters, wide turning bays, and clearly marked driving aisles. Designed to accommodate modern suburban and urban traffic alike, the garage easily accommodates standard passenger sedans, compact cars, crossovers, and full-size SUVs. Drivers of lifted pickup trucks or high-roof commercial vans should pay close attention to posted height clearance signs at the entrance portals (typically 7 feet 0 inches to 8 feet 2 inches depending on the level), while open surface zones and designated loading docks serve oversized vehicles.
