About this Location

Facility Overview

The Spartanburg Regional Parking Garage is a multi-level covered parking structure located on the main campus of Spartanburg Medical Center at 975 N Church St in northern Spartanburg, South Carolina. Built primarily to serve hospital patients, clinical visitors, doctors, and medical staff, the parking deck provides seamless, weather-protected vehicular parking with direct proximity to key hospital pavilions, including the Emergency Department, the Heart Center, and specialized outpatient clinics. The structure accommodates standard passenger cars, minivans, and mid-to-full-size SUVs across multiple tiers. Standard vertical clearance is posted at entry points (approximately 7 feet 0 inches), meaning oversized commercial vans, lifted pickup trucks with tall roof racks, and campers should utilize designated open-air campus perimeter surface lots instead of driving into the multi-deck structure.

Visitor & Driver Tips

First-time visitors should follow overhead signage closely upon entry, as specific levels are partitioned between general visitors, surgery admissions, and credentialed medical personnel. For the fastest route to outpatient suites or the main atrium, park near the central elevator core. If you are arriving with a patient experiencing a medical emergency, follow the red emergency signage directly to the Emergency Center drop-off loop before proceeding to the garage for long-term parking.
