About this Location

Facility Overview

Situated in the heart of Greenwich Village near Union Square, Park-it Ronel Operating LLC (managed under the Park-It NY umbrella at 25 West 13th Street) delivers secure, professional indoor valet parking in one of Lower Manhattan’s most historic and energetic districts. Housed in a multi-level subterranean and sheltered structure between Fifth Avenue and Avenue of the Americas (Sixth Avenue), this facility offers an effortless alternative to the notoriously competitive street parking of Downtown NYC. Due to structural interior design, the garage has a strict maximum vehicle height clearance of 6\'0\" (1.83 m). As such, it accommodates standard sedans, compact crossovers, and mid-size passenger cars with ease. Drivers of full-size SUVs, lifted pickup trucks, or high-roof commercial vans should note that strict height limits apply and standard oversize surcharges may be assessed upon arrival. Exotic or ultra-luxury vehicles must be arranged in advance with garage management.

Visitor & Driver Tips

Because West 13th Street is a narrow one-way street, approach carefully as delivery vehicles and ride-share traffic can cause brief slowdowns. During morning rush hours and evening dining peaks (5:00 PM – 8:00 PM), inbound and outbound traffic around Fifth Avenue intensifies; allow an extra 10–15 minutes when dropping off or retrieving your vehicle. If you drive a crossover or larger SUV, be prepared for standard New York City oversize fees collected on-site. Reserving your spot in advance through mobile parking apps is highly recommended to secure the best promotional rate and ensure guaranteed entry before popular weekend events.
