Overview & Suitability
The parking facility at 300 Drayton St is a premier, centrally located parking setup in Savannah's Landmark Historic District. This location is highly notable as the local operational office of Parking Management Company (PMC). The facility features an attached multi-story garage and surface parking options that primarily serve the historic 300 Drayton commercial building, its office tenants, visitors of the ground-floor restaurant Treylor Park Hitch, and guests of the luxury Penthouse/Sky Suite. The facility is exceptionally suited for standard passenger cars, sedans, crossovers, and standard SUVs. Due to low overhead clearances in the attached deck, this location is strictly restricted to passenger vehicles and is entirely unsuitable for large RVs, campervans, or oversized commercial trucks.
Access, Dimensions & Clearance
Access to the attached parking garage is positioned directly off Drayton Street near the intersection with East Liberty Street. Drivers should expect tight turning radiuses typical of historic Savannah's urban design. Clearance height is restricted to standard passenger vehicle dimensions (estimated at 6 feet 8 inches), meaning tall roof-racks, lifted trucks, or trailers must seek alternative surface lot options. Inside, lanes are single-direction with clearly marked bays, though full-size trucks may require extra care when maneuvering the ramps.
Parking Rates, Tariffs & Booking
Rates vary depending on whether you are a short-term visitor, commuter, or overnight guest:
- Hourly Parking: Estimated at $5.00 per hour, perfect for brief restaurant stops or quick errands.
- Daily Parking: Estimated at $25.00 per day.
- Monthly Parking: Dedicated monthly contract options are available for local office tenants and downtown employees, estimated at $250.00 per month.
Payments on-site can be made via mobile text-to-pay services or QR-code based web interfaces as managed by PMC. Guests staying in the building's luxury vacation penthouse enjoy complimentary on-site private parking included with their lodging.
Security & Amenities
Vehicles are well-protected here due to robust security and facility features:
- Gate-controlled access limits entry to authorized tenants and paid visitors.
- Bright, energy-efficient LED lighting covers all parking decks and stairwells.
- The on-site presence of PMC's local management office in Suite K adds a layer of operational oversight and security.
- An elevator connects the parking deck directly to upper office and residential floors.
Strategic Alternative
This central location is an outstanding alternative to street-level metered parking, which can be heavily contested in the Historic District. It is positioned within a short walking distance of multiple prominent tourist and transit points:
- Cathedral Basilica of St. John the Baptist: Located just a 2-minute walk away.
- Madison Square & Lafayette Square: A scenic 2-minute walk from the facility.
- Forsyth Park: Located just an 8-minute walk to the south.
- River Street: Only a 12-minute walk north to Savannah's historic riverfront shopping, dining, and scenic waterfront.
