Weekend Parking Near 30th Street Station? (rental car, rental, how much)

[katielee102]

Hey everyone!
I had a question that im sure someone will be able to help with. I am taking amtrack to Boston for a weekend in April. Becasue of the times I am leaving I cant find a ride so its either drive and park or take a cab. I live in Northeast Philly and so far im finding a cab fare to be about $45, each way. Im thinking it would be cheaper to park there and pay.

Anyone know the prices of close by lots? Thank you!!

Just a thought! You could call all the airport parking facilitys on Enterprise Av and see if any of them could shuttle you to Center City. Also there is a monster garage between 15th and 16th south side of Vine st that has very low flat rates per day and that would be a much shorter cab ride then from your house.

The 24 hour rate for self parking underneath 30th Street Station is $25. You just take the escalator or elevator from the garage right into the main waiting/ticketing areas.

Unless something changed recently the underground garage was converted to rental cars only years ago. There is the garage at Cire Center however. I know it's very expensive but I don't know how much.

For less than what they are charging, I would pick you up in my car and drive you to 30th Street Station and pick you up and drive you home when you get back!

You can PM me!!!

I recently parked at the 30th & JFK parking lot and based on the signs, the lot is under new management (the entrance to the lot is on JFK). The seem to have made some positive changes, the lot is much better maintained (used to have a lot of trash all over) and the staff was helpful when I went to pay for my parking. The price is also bearable at $22 per day, which is $5 cheaper than 30th street station but just as close. I'd definitely use this for weekend or weekday parking.
