Overview & Suitability
The River Market Garage, operated by Metropolis, is a premier covered parking facility located at 20 North Blvd, Jersey City, NJ. This modern facility serves as a convenient parking hub for residents, shoppers, and commuters in the vibrant Newport waterfront community. Please note that this is a standard-vehicle facility; it is not suitable for RVs, motorhomes, or oversized vehicles.
Access, Dimensions & Clearance
The garage enforces a strict maximum vehicle clearance of 6 feet 5 inches. Due to these specific size constraints, the facility cannot accommodate minivans, midsize or large SUVs, pickup trucks, or passenger vans. Drivers should ensure their vehicle meets these height and size requirements prior to arrival to avoid potential access issues.
Parking Rates, Tariffs & Booking
The facility utilizes a frictionless, camera-based system. Upon arrival, cameras recognize your license plate to open the gate, and similarly, the gate opens automatically upon departure with a digital receipt sent to you. Rates are subject to change and should be verified via the Metropolis app or official signage on-site.
- Hourly and daily rates are available for transient parkers.
