University Place Parking Garage
About
University Place Garage is a public parking garage operated by VPNE, a block from Harvard Square in Cambridge. It bills itself as Harvard Square’s answer to inexpensive parking, with hourly daily parking, monthly parking and a student rate for drivers with a current ID. Night and weekend parking has its own rate structure for drivers who arrive later on weekdays or park on Saturdays and Sundays.
A parking validation program covers more than 75 participating businesses, and drivers receive a yellow validation ticket from a participating merchant to get the reduced rate. Prepaid night and weekend validations are sold in packs, and a night monthly option serves drivers who park overnight on weekdays and all day on weekends and federal holidays. The garage also offers additional discounted programs for employees of area restaurants and retail shops.
What to Know
- Parking attendants do not validate tickets, so validation must come from a participating merchant.
- Validated rates apply to weekday entries before 4 PM.
- The garage is listed by the Harvard Square Business Association.
