About this Location

Facility Overview

The Morristown Parking Authority (MPA) central administration office and prime parking hub is conveniently situated at 14 Maple Avenue, Suite 101, directly adjacent to and operating the DeHart Street Parking Garage in the bustling downtown core of historic Morristown, New Jersey. This modern, multi-level covered parking structure is engineered to provide safe, clean, and accessible public parking for residents, commuters, and visitors alike. Designed with wide drive aisles, clearly marked vehicular lanes, and gentle ramping, the garage comfortably accommodates standard sedans, compacts, crossovers, and full-size personal SUVs. The facility features standard multi-level covered clearance (typically accommodating vehicles up to 7 feet / 2.13 meters), making it ideal for everyday passenger vehicles, while drivers of oversized commercial cargo vans, elevated dual-axle work trucks, or vehicles with roof cargo boxes are advised to utilize the Authority\'s nearby open-air surface lots or designated on-street spaces.

Visitor & Driver Tips

During peak event evenings at MPAC or busy Friday and Saturday dinner hours, downtown traffic around the Green can become dense; arriving 20 to 30 minutes early guarantees smooth entry and immediate space availability. Make note of your exact parking floor and stall number, and download or configure the ParkMobile app before your visit to avoid waiting in line at the physical pay stations. Always verify posted height restrictions at garage entry portals if carrying roof-mounted sports equipment or roof boxes.
