About this Location

Facility Overview

The Clarksburg Public Parking Garage, conveniently situated at 222 Hewes Avenue, serves as the primary multi-level covered parking structure for downtown Clarksburg, West Virginia. Positioned in the heart of the city\'s civic and historic business core, this facility offers multi-story sheltered parking designed to keep vehicles protected from the elements across all four Appalachian seasons. The garage features clearly delineated drive aisles and standard-dimension bays suitable for compact cars, sedans, crossovers, mid-size SUVs, and standard stock pickup trucks. Drivers operating oversized vehicles, such as lifted four-wheel-drive trucks, roof-box-equipped SUVs, or commercial high-roof cargo vans, should verify posted overhead clearance signs at the entrance threshold (typically 6 feet 8 inches to 7 feet) before entering, as clearance may be restricted across upper covered decks.

Visitor & Driver Tips

When heading to major evening shows or sold-out weekend performances at the nearby Robinson Grand Performing Arts Center, consider arriving 20 to 30 minutes before showtime to secure a convenient space on the lower tiers. Keep your headlights on while navigating the garage ramps to maintain maximum visibility for oncoming traffic around interior turns. Drivers of full-size pickup trucks should pull straight into spaces or utilize outer wall stalls where maneuverability and rear clearances are greatest.
