About this Location

Facility Overview

The parking facility at 273-299 Larrabee Road is a practical open-air surface lot situated directly on the boundary corridor connecting Greater Portland and Westbrook, Maine. Positioned along a key arterial connector between Main Street Westbrook and Riverside Street, this facility offers open-sky, level-grade parking suited for a diverse variety of vehicles. Because the lot is an unenclosed ground-level surface facility, it presents no overhead clearance barriers or low-ceiling restrictions, making it exceptionally accommodating for oversized SUVs, full-size commercial pickups, high-roof conversion vans, and light utility trucks that cannot access standard multi-story parking garages.

Visitor & Driver Tips

When approaching via the Maine Turnpike (I-95), take Exit 47 or Exit 48 and proceed toward Larrabee Road for the most direct route avoiding downtown Portland city congestion. During peak morning and late-afternoon rush hours, traffic on Larrabee Road and the Westbrook Arterial can increase, so allow an extra 5 to 10 minutes when merging back onto major highways. During Maine\'s winter weather season, be mindful of municipal snow parking bans and look out for designated snow plow storage zones across the lot perimeter.
