Facility Overview
The parking area located at 619 North Shore Drive in Jeffersonville, Indiana, functions as a convenient surface-level parking solution. Situated along the scenic Ohio River waterfront, this facility is primarily an open-air lot, making it an excellent choice for drivers operating standard passenger vehicles, SUVs, and full-size pickup trucks. Because it is a surface lot, there are no vertical clearance restrictions, allowing for easier access for taller vehicles compared to multi-level parking garages.

This location is perfectly positioned for those looking to enjoy the Jeffersonville riverfront. It is located just steps away from the Big Four Bridge, a iconic pedestrian path connecting Jeffersonville to Louisville.

It serves as a strategic base for guests visiting the nearby museums or attending seasonal community festivals hosted along the river.
