About this Location

Facility Overview

Centerpark Charles Street Parking Garage, located at 677 Washington Street in Manhattan\'s historic West Village (10014), offers secure, indoor valet parking in one of New York City\'s most picturesque and parking-constrained neighborhoods. Situated between Charles Street and Perry Street near the Hudson River waterfront, this covered parking facility provides a dependable refuge from the congested, narrow cobblestone streets of the Far West Village. The garage primarily accommodates standard passenger sedans, compact crossovers, and mid-sized SUVs. Due to standard subterranean indoor clearance heights (typically capped around 6 feet 6 inches to 6 feet 8 inches), oversized conversion vans, lifted pickup trucks, and high-roof commercial cargo vehicles cannot be accommodated. Drivers of full-size SUVs should anticipate standard NYC oversized vehicle surcharges.

Prime Location & Nearby Attractions

  • Hudson River Park & Christopher Street Pier (Pier 45): Just two blocks west (a 3-minute walk), providing riverfront promenades, running paths, and recreational lawns.

Ideal For

  • PATH Commuters: New Jersey commuters seeking dependable vehicle storage adjacent to downtown transit links.

Visitor & Driver Tips

Because the West Village features narrow, one-way residential roadways and frequent pedestrian foot traffic, motorists are advised to approach via Route 9A (West Street) and turn east onto Christopher Street before heading north onto Washington Street. Pre-booking a parking reservation via online parking apps is strongly encouraged on Friday and Saturday evenings, as spaces quickly fill up due to destination dining. Always account for standard Manhattan parking taxes and ensure you verify vehicle dimension limits before arrival if driving a large vehicle.
