Facility Overview
Waynesburg Borough Parking Lot #3 is a well-maintained municipal surface lot situated in the heart of downtown Waynesburg, Pennsylvania, at the corner of West High Street and South Morris Street. Serving as a central parking hub adjacent to local financial institutions and storefronts, the facility is designed as a single-level open-air asphalt lot. Because it is completely open-sky with no overhead garage ceilings or low-clearance overhangs, it accommodates a broad range of passenger vehicles, including standard sedans, compact crossovers, full-size pickup trucks, heavy-duty commercial vans, and roof-rack-equipped SUVs without vertical height limitations.
Prime Location & Nearby Attractions
Positioned along historic Route 21 (West High Street), Lot #3 offers immediate walkable access to Waynesburg\'s civic, legal, and educational anchors. The historic Greene County Courthouse is less than a two-block stroll (under 3 minutes) eastward, making this lot a premier choice for attorneys, jurors, and county agency visitors. Waynesburg University campus lies just three blocks to the southwest (a 5-to-7-minute walk), providing a convenient off-campus parking alternative for commuter students and visiting families attending campus lectures or athletic meets. Downtown dining establishments, bakeries, cafes, and local retail boutiques lining High Street are right outside the perimeter. Additionally, during the warmer months, this exact lot serves as the community focal point hosting the weekly Waynesburg Farmers Market, drawing regional vendors and visitors.
Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity
Vehicular ingress and egress are clean and direct via West High Street and adjacent alleyways, facilitating smooth circulation even during morning court sessions or afternoon rush hours. The lot connects seamlessly to PA Route 21 (High Street/Greene Street corridor), granting quick connections to Interstate 79 (Exit 14) located roughly two miles to the east. Public bus transit provided by Greene County Transportation Security and regional shuttles stops within steps of High Street, linking riders throughout Greene County and onward to Morgantown or Washington.
