About this Location

Facility Overview

80 Car Park (operated by Centerpark) is a clean, secure subterranean parking facility located beneath the prominent 80 Park Avenue condominium tower in Manhattan\'s historic Murray Hill neighborhood. Offering two subterranean parking levels, this garage provides professional attendant valet parking within the bustling Midtown East commercial and residential corridor. Due to its traditional architectural profile, this garage features a strict maximum vehicle height clearance of 6 feet 0 inches (6\'0\") and does not accommodate vehicles longer than 191 inches. Compact cars, midsize sedans, and low-profile crossovers fit comfortably, while high-roof cargo vans, extended-cab pickup trucks, and large full-size SUVs with roof racks should seek alternative outdoor or high-clearance Midtown facilities.

Drivers arriving from New Jersey can transition smoothly from the Queens-Midtown Tunnel or the Lincoln Tunnel directly into Midtown East corridors. The garage provides an unbeatable transit safeguard: motorists can leave their vehicle and quickly catch regional rail or subway connections at Grand Central Terminal (serving Metro-North, Long Island Rail Road, and the 4, 5, 6, 7, and S subway lines) or the 33rd Street 6 train subway station.

Visitor & Driver Tips

Because of the strict 6-foot vertical ceiling limit and 191-inch length restrictions, verify your vehicle\'s physical specifications before arrival. During morning and evening rush hours, traffic on Park Avenue and around Grand Central can back up significantly; allow an extra 10 to 15 minutes for entry and retrieval. Reserving your parking space in advance through parking apps typically unlocks discounted rates compared to drive-up window prices. Keep your claim ticket safe, as it is required by the valet staff for vehicle checkout.
