Facility Overview

Sylvan Forester Garage LLC, operated by Sylvan Parking, is a professional multi-level covered underground parking garage situated at 111-20 73rd Avenue in the bustling neighborhood of Forest Hills, Queens. Designed primarily as an indoor valet-assist facility, it caters to residential neighbors, business clients, and daily visitors seeking safe, sheltered parking in an area where curbside spaces are notoriously scarce. While standard passenger sedans, compact cars, crossovers, and standard SUVs fit comfortably within the garage layout, drivers of oversized vehicles such as full-size pickup trucks, commercial cargo vans, or lifted SUVs should check with the attendant on duty regarding standard underground height restrictions and potential oversized vehicle surcharges.
