Free Parking! We found it!
When you turn left on Quartz into the 24 Hour Fitness area you have 3 choices. You can go immediately left for secret free parking. You can go straight for a non validated parking garage. You can go right for the 24 Hour Fitness validated parking garage like in past years. It’s a slightly longer walk, but if you take that immediate left you will find a parking lot with the gates UP for the weekend. Shabam!
Parking Structure Info
We tried to get the parking structure company to just leave the gate open but had no success. The parking company is not affiliated with our venue. We are left with the following solution.
When you park in the parking structure designated for the 24 hour fitness location, a machine will dispense a ticket as you enter the gate. BRING THIS TICKET INTO THE CLUB and you’ll see a validation machine at the front reception desk. Slide your ticket into the machine and you will have free parking for the first four hours (the time is shown on the ticket). When you leave the parking structure, you’ll need to slide your ticket into the gate to exit. If you’re within the four hour period there’ll be no charge. If you want to stay for more than 4 hours, you can turn right around and re-enter the parking structure and get a new ticket and repeat this process as often as you like.
If you go beyond the four hours or forget to validate your ticket, you can pay for your parking at the pay station located in the elevator lobby at ground level, or you can slide your credit card into the gate when you exit. The parking fee is $3.50 per hour, $14.00 maximum. If you lose your ticket, you’ll be required to pay the $14.00 maximum fee to exit the parking structure. Be forewarned that after 9 pm on saturday night there will be no parking attendants or security in the parking structure. There will also be a low level of lighting along the exterior pathways leading to and from the club.
In summary, if you don’t want to pay for parking you will have to move your car in and out of the structure every 4 hours. However, if you are like me, I am staying so long that I will just pay the $14 max fee and not worry about the parking cost. You can see from the picture above that the walk from the structure to the venue is pretty far for us Orange County types so it’s worth saving my legs for dancing.
Regarding parking structure: gates are up for the weekend but we still need to move our car every 4 hours, right?
Regarding parking structure: gates are DOWN for the weekend and you do need to move your car every 4 hours.
There is a separate parking lot all together on the corner of Michaelson and Von Carmen that you access from Quartz. The gates for that lot are up on weekends because they are normally manned by humans.
