About this Location

Facility Overview

321-329 St Marks Pl Parking is a conveniently situated open-air surface parking facility in the heart of the historic St. George neighborhood on Staten Island\'s North Shore. Positioned on St. Marks Place near Hyatt Street, the facility offers a straightforward, unobstructed parking layout ideal for passenger sedans, crossovers, full-size SUVs, pickup trucks, and commercial vans. Because this is an open-air surface lot, there are no vertical clearance bars or low-ceiling restrictions, making it particularly accommodating for tall vehicles, roof-box-equipped road-trippers, and service trucks that cannot enter typical multi-deck parking garages.

Prime Location & Nearby Attractions

Located on the ridge overlooking the Upper New York Bay, this facility places motorists within easy walking distance of Staten Island’s key municipal, cultural, and waterfront attractions:

St. George Theatre: Just a 2 to 3-minute stroll (less than 500 feet), making this location one of the best parking spots for concertgoers, comedy performances, and theatrical shows.
Staten Island Ferry Terminal: Approximately a 7 to 9-minute walk downhill (0.4 miles), offering a cost-effective, commuter-friendly launchpad for taking the free 25-minute scenic ferry into Lower Manhattan (Whitehall Terminal).
Staten Island University Hospital Community Park: Home of the Staten Island FerryHawks minor league baseball team, located roughly 8 minutes away on foot (0.4 miles).
Empire Outlets: Staten Island\'s premiere waterfront outlet shopping destination and dining hub, situated next to the ferry terminal (around an 8-minute walk).
Richmond County Civic Center & Courts: Richmond County Supreme Court, Staten Island Borough Hall, and the Richmond County Surrogate\'s Court are within a 5-minute walk.

Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity

Ingress and egress are positioned directly along St. Marks Place, which connects cleanly to Hyatt Street, Richmond Terrace, and Slosson Terrace. Drivers traveling via the Staten Island Expressway (I-278) can smoothly reach the facility via the Clove Road or Richmond Road exits, while those crossing from New Jersey via the Bayonne Bridge have direct arterial routes down Richmond Terrace. Public transit is exceptionally strong in this sector: the St. George Staten Island Railway (SIR) terminal and numerous MTA local and express bus routes (including the S40, S42, S44, S46, S48, S51, S61, S62, S74, and S76) converge at the adjacent transit center.

Visitor & Driver Tips

Due to popular events at the St. George Theatre and afternoon commuter ferry peaks, spaces can fill quickly on weekday mornings and weekend evenings. Drivers are encouraged to arrive 20 to 30 minutes early on show nights to secure their space. Keep in mind that St. George\'s terrain features steep hills; if you are walking to the ferry or ballpark, the return walk up St. Marks Place involves an uphill climb, so comfortable footwear is recommended.
