Parking Garages
Garages are your best bet for affordable, long-term parking—and a great way to park once and walk to multiple destinations. Unlike the meters which have time limits, you can park in the garages as long as you need.

Parking Meters
With three colleges, parking meters are often the only thing keeping The District from turning into a student parking lot! Meter rates are based on demand so those in the retail and restaurant core are higher than those on the outer edges of The District. This done so that spots will always be opening up throughout the day for people running quick errands. Remember, meter feeding is not allowed so once your allotted time runs out, you can't just refill the meter.
