Off Street Parking
(Garages & Lots)
The City of Berkeley owns and manages two
 parking
garages and several off-street parking lots. The two garages are the
Center Street Garage and the Telegraph/Channing Garage (formerly the
Sather Gate Garage). Off-street parking lots are located at Oxford between
Allston and Kittredge, Berkeley Way between Milvia and Shattuck, and
Elmwood Lot on Russell Street just west of College Avenue.
The
Center
Street Parking Lot is located downtown at 2025 Center
Street between Milvia and Shattuck. It also has an entrance on Addison
Street to better serve the theater and arts district. This garage is convenient to
downtown shops,
theaters, restaurants and other businesses and cultural attractions.
Merchants participating in the Downtown Berkeley Association
provide parking validation coupons for patrons. Center Street Garage is open from 7 a.m. to midnight Monday
through Saturday, noon to 10 p.m. on Sunday. From 5 p.m. on you can park
until closing for $5.00. Center Street Garage also provides two charging
stations for electric vehicles on the 4th floor.
The Telegraph/Channing Garage (formerly
the Sather Gate Garage) is located two blocks from the UC Berkeley Campus.
One-half block west of Telegraph Avenue, with entrances on both Durant Avenue and
Channing Way, the Telegraph/Channing Garage is convenient to shops, restaurants, Telegraph
Avenue and the UC campus. The
old multi-meter system has been replaced by central cashiers and automated
pay machines at which you pay before exit. Substantial discounts are
given with merchant validations, and over 80 Telegraph area merchants and
street vendors participate in the Telegraph/Channing Garage Validation Program.
New elevators, improved lighting and higher levels of
customer service are now available. The Telegraph/Channing Garage is open from 7 a.m.
to 1 a.m. Monday through Thursday, on Friday and Saturday from 7 a.m. to 2
a.m., and on Sunday from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. except major holidays.
A metered parking lot is located on Berkeley
Way at Henry. This
parking lot uses 112 Duncan Parking Meters that allow for parking of two
or four hours. This lot is convenient to UC
Berkeley Campus, downtown shops, restaurants and theaters located in
the Shattuck and University Avenue areas.
 Oxford
Street Lot is located between Allston Way and Kittredge.
The entrance is on Kittredge. This lot is particularly convenient to the UC Campus,
Haas Pavilion, downtown, movies, theaters, shops, restaurants and the Berkeley
Public Library. A parking attendant is available to answer questions, assist you
and take payment. Oxford Lot is open from 8 a.m. to midnight Monday
through Saturday, from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Sunday, and is closed on
major holidays. The evening rate of $4.00 goes into
