About this Location

Facility Overview

The 7 E 14th St Garage (operated by iPark as the East 14th Garage Corp.) is an established, fully attended, multi-level indoor parking facility located in the bustling Union Square corridor of Manhattan. Situated on the north side of East 14th Street between 5th Avenue and Union Square West, this 24/7 covered valet facility provides secure off-street vehicle storage in one of New York City’s most pedestrian-dense and commerce-heavy districts. Trained valet professionals manage intake and stack parking on-site, maximizing space and keeping the check-in queue moving efficiently.

Regarding vehicle suitability, standard passenger sedans, compact crossovers, and small-to-midsize SUVs navigate the facility with ease. The garage has a posted vertical clearance restriction of approximately 6 feet 7 inches (with some inner bays accommodating up to 7 feet 7 inches). Daily oversize fees apply to vehicles exceeding 65 inches in height and 180 inches in length. Drivers should note that due to space constraints, vehicle elevator limits, and management guidelines, high-roof cargo vans, dual-rear-wheel pickups, and super-oversized commercial trucks cannot be accommodated. Additionally, iPark policies at this specific facility restrict certain battery-electric models (such as Tesla and Rivian) and non-standard exotic vehicles on standard daily reservations.

Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity

Navigating to 7 East 14th Street requires attention to Manhattan's 14th Street Transit & Truck Priority (Busway) regulations. Under city rules, 14th Street prioritizes public transit; private passenger vehicles are legally permitted on the block solely for local business and garage access. Drivers should approach directly from 5th Avenue or Union Square West, turning onto 14th Street no more than one block prior to the garage entrance across from the Journeys and T-Mobile retail storefronts. Having a digital parking reservation (such as SpotHero or ParkMobile) ready to display allows you to navigate past traffic management personnel seamlessly.

When leaving the car behind, public transit access is unrivaled. The 14th Street–Union Square subway station is only one block east, connecting travelers directly to the 4, 5, 6, L, N, Q, R, and W subway lines. The M14A-SBS and M14D-SBS Select Bus Service lines stop along the corridor, and uptown/downtown bus routes run along 5th Avenue and Park Avenue South.
