Facility Overview
MKM Parking Inc. is an established commercial parking facility located at 380 Bruckner Boulevard in the vibrant South Bronx neighborhood of Mott Haven (ZIP 10454). Positioned directly along the major arterial corridor of the Bruckner, this location operates primarily as an attendant-serviced open-air surface lot. Its spacious outdoor configuration provides a distinct advantage over tight multi-level Manhattan and Bronx garages: with no low-hanging overhead ceilings or restrictive vertical clearance bars, it easily accommodates full-size pickup trucks, large passenger vans, commercial utility vehicles, and oversized SUVs alongside standard sedans and compacts. On-site staff help direct vehicle flow and manage spot allocation to maximize efficiency and security.

Visitor & Driver Tips
Traffic along Bruckner Boulevard and the I-278 corridor can intensify during weekday morning and evening rush hours, so plan for extra travel time when arriving between 7:30 AM – 9:30 AM and 4:30 PM – 6:30 PM. When approaching, stay on the ground-level Bruckner Boulevard service road rather than entering the elevated expressway ramps. If you plan to leave your vehicle for extended hours or overnight, confirm return times with the lot attendant upon check-in to ensure swift vehicle retrieval.
