Facility Overview
The two-story parking garage situated along North Liberty Street (216-228 N Liberty St) serves as a vital parking facility in the historic county seat of Centreville in Queen Anne\'s County, Maryland. Built as a durable two-level parking deck, the structure offers covered ground-level bays as well as an open-air upper rooftop deck. The facility primarily serves visitors to the nearby Queen Anne\'s County court and administrative complexes, jurors, municipal personnel, and patrons patronizing downtown commercial establishments. Standard passenger sedans, crossover utility vehicles, and mid-size SUVs can easily navigate the interior drive aisles and parking stalls. Drivers operating full-size pickup trucks, passenger vans, or vehicles outfitted with rooftop accessories should be mindful of posted entrance height clearances on the covered lower tier, while the open-air upper level affords unrestricted overhead clearance.

Visitor & Driver Tips
The lower level fills rapidly on weekday mornings during active court calls and jury duty reporting periods; arriving between 8:00 AM and 8:30 AM is recommended to secure shaded lower-level spaces. If you drive a tall vehicle, such as a lifted 4x4 pickup truck or a van with overhead cargo racks, utilize the open-air upper deck to avoid vertical clearance concerns. Keep your vehicle locked and store personal items and work bags out of plain sight while attending business downtown.
