Overview & Suitability
The SCAD Parking Garage (located adjacent to Montgomery Hall) serves as a primary parking hub for Savannah College of Art and Design students, faculty, staff, and authorized visitors. Positioned near W 52nd Street and Montgomery Street, this facility is designed for standard passenger vehicles, including sedans, SUVs, and compact cars. It is a restricted facility requiring a valid SCAD parking decal or guest permit, making it unsuitable for general public use but highly convenient for the university community.
Access, Dimensions & Clearance
Access to the parking facility is straightforward via W 52nd St. The area is laid out to accommodate standard-sized passenger vehicles. High-profile vehicles, oversized commercial trucks, and RVs are not permitted due to space limitations and designated parking restrictions. Drivers should exercise caution during class transition times when pedestrian traffic is high.
Parking Rates, Tariffs & Booking
Parking is complimentary for SCAD students, faculty, and staff with an active, registered university decal. General public parking is not permitted, and violators are subject to ticketing, booting, or towing. Visitors must coordinate with SCAD security or their hosting department to secure a temporary visitor pass prior to parking.
Security & Amenities
Security is a high priority at this facility. It features robust lighting, active 24/7 CCTV surveillance, and regular patrols by SCAD Security officers. Additionally, emergency call boxes are located throughout the area to ensure safety for students and faculty utilizing the facility during late-night study sessions.
Strategic Alternative
While restricted to SCAD permit holders, this location provides direct, seamless access to SCAD's Montgomery Hall, local digital media hubs, and academic classrooms, serving as the most efficient parking option for campus activities in southern Savannah.
