Guest Parking

Due to the limited number of parking spaces available on the College of Charleston campus, all guests to the College should be directed to park in a parking garage or parking meter. Any guest who considers parking in one of our surface lots is advised to read the posted signs very carefully, as most of our lots are 24/7 permit-only and subject to citations.

Four garages located close to campus are:

• The College’s St. Philip Street Garage at 81 St. Philip Street (next to the Bell Building); the rate is $.75 each for the first 2 half-hours, and $1.00 per hour for each additional hour. The daily maximum is $10.00 per calendar day.
• The new garage on St. Philip Street between George and Liberty Streets; the rate is $1.00 each for the first 4 half-hours, and $1.00 per hour for each additional hour. The daily maximum is $16.00 per calendar day.
• The Wentworth Street Garage, located at the intersection of Wentworth and St. Philip Streets; the rate is $1.00 each for the first 4 half-hours, and $1.00 per hour for each additional hour. The daily maximum is $16.00 per calendar day.
• The Francis Marion Garage on King Street next to the Westin Francis Marion Hotel; the rate is $1.00 each for the first 2 half-hours, and $1.00 per hour for each additional hour. There is not a daily maximum at the Francis Marion Garage.
