World Trade Center Parking Ofc

My main reason for parking here (WTC side which is the RIGHT side when you enter from Figueroa) is that it’s the most affordable parking structure out of all the structures around my work. It’s $ 9 a day if you arrive before 10:00am. I got tired of having to pay each day, so I bought the monthly pass which saves you maybe a few bucks. However, you receive a key card that you just pass in front of a reader to get in and out. This also gives you parking access to floors D, E, and F. I see a lot of people here saying the spots are small, which they ARE if they are labeled COMPACT. However, the other spots are normal, and if you still have a problem, go find a corner spot or park next to a pillar! There are plenty of those spots available, and I’ve never had a problem with the floors being full.
I love the monthly pass because I can exit off of Flower street and not have to worry about crossing over 4 lanes in 15 feet to get to the 110 freeway (referencing the exit off of Figueroa). It is MUCH MUCH easier.

I started parking here last year, paying $ 8 a day for the early bird rate (which then went up to $ 9 late last year). This year, I decided to spare myself the hassle and go monthly, which when you figure it out is about the same, anyway. If you are going to do the «early bird» thing, note that there are some days when you won’t even have that as an option, though they do try to post warnings in the days before, once I saw it the DAY before.
Since it’s really the (second) cheapest parking around (I park in the larger lot), it gets my thumbs up. It’s kind of in the middle of everything on Bunker Hill, so even as I change employers, I get to keep my parking arrangement.
My main gripe is that people with their large large cars try to cram themselves into the relatively small spaces, and then park poorly. Also, their exit areas are either jammed with visiting drivers who take too long to exit or many pedestrians.

I used to work in Downtown LA and even as an employee, I had to PAY for parking (swiped my badge and they would take the fee straight out of my paycheck!).
Anyway, I had to come to DTLA for a workshop. It was either pay $ 40 to park directly underneath the building or park at the World Trade Center parking structure for $ 8 – 9 and walk. Even though my company would reimburse me for parking, $ 40 is ludicrous.
The other address for this structure is 349 S. Flower St, Los Angeles as there are multiple entrances. (Flower, Figueroa, 3^rd)
I agree with the other reviews on here… people drive FAST in here. I’m like. «what if someone is backing out of a parking spot and you are going 20 – 30 mph around the corner?!?» (SMACK!)
I was driving a «Compact» car and the car barely fit in the parking spot. As we were leaving, a Lexus parked on my right with our rearview mirrors almost touching. My coworker couldn’t get it the car. I have no idea how the driver got out from the Lexus, but probably through the passenger side.
I think you will do well if you drive a Mini Cooper or a Smart Car, but good luck if you have a SUV or truck…
Also, when we were leaving, there was no parking attendant so I was left putting my multiple $ 1.00 bills in the machine. (sorry to the car behind me LOL)
⁴⁶⁄₁₀₀ Reviews for 2015

This review is for the ABM side and for monthly parking:
It’s the cheapest rate around, especially if you get the discount for being in a building that is managed by the right property management firm. There are two sides to this lot, and I am speaking about the more east/​south side. There are 4 – 5 levels although level A is inaccessible for some reason. Must belong to the other side.
The other side has a wait list for parking, but I don’t believe our side does.
The GOOD:
*Inexpensive for this area (especially with the discount)
*24 hour parking so you can leave the car overnight
*Easily accessible from 110 freeway
*Extremely friendly staff
*Well lit
*I am pretty sure the parking pay machine uses a recording of Sigourney Weaver’s voice. Exciting stuff.
The BAD:
*Tiny parking spaces so expect door dents. You WILL get them.
*Fast drivers. People race through here… so as a pedestrian be careful and as a parker be conscientious about how many cars you have piling up behind you when you are trying to squeeze into a tiny spot.
*I had a crazy homeless guy expose himself to me on level D, but hey isn’t that part of the experience in downtown LA. I called security to spare the next person the trauma.
*The elevators only work 30% of the time. Two elevators and for the last 3 months, one has been shut off, and the other is questionable daily.
*Traffic can get so bad outside of the lot that the lot will at times back up, so you literally pull out into a line of traffic in the parking garage.
*In order to get to the 110 freeway from the Fig exit you must cross 3 lanes of extremely busy traffic to get to the left hand turn lane. This can really keep things exciting
*The Flower exit has several pedestrians that walk across it, and it is really a blind spot for drivers. Be CAREFUL not to hit anyone.
This lot is good for the Bunker Hill area which would be the Bank of America building, Wells Fargo Center, the twin towers, the CBRE building and the US Bank building. Anything further and I would strongly recommend Pershing Square, a much brighter, bigger and more spacious lot that belongs to the city.

First thing to note: This parking garage is owned by two different companies, so make sure to pay attention to the signs. The north side is run by ABM and the south is run by Standard. If you look closely at the silver signs, the company’s logos appear beneath the prices.
I started parkign here recently for the early bird rates. I work up on Bunker Hill, and although it’s a few blocks away, the WTC’s elevators conveniently take you up to the bridge that will cross you over Flower and toward the Bank of America building (which you can walk through — with the help of escalators!). Then you are in a great spot to continue on toward Grand or stay on Hope if that’s your final destination. I think it’s a great place to park because of it’s relatively low daily price and would recommend it also for guests of the local hotels.

Dislike — was cheated again recently w/​the evening parking rate — based on my time of entry, it should’ve been a flat $ 7 or $ 8 for the evening but somehow was charged the hourly rate… needless to say, I was not pleased with that surprise — again!

Please do not park here. I parked here from 6:30 Sunday evening until 5 AM Monday morning and it cost me $ 44.00!!! I was in a hurry to catch a plane and there was no one around to talk to. But I just went to their office and I was told I have to pay the 24 hour rate PLUS an additional $ 8.00 because I went out the wrong exit. I followed the only signs I saw. They do have an overnight rate of $ 16.00 if you’re out by 6:00am but apparently that didn’t apply to me. The woman in the office said everything was posted but it was NOT!!! If I can keep just a few of you from parking here — it won’t matter to them but it will make ME feel less ripped off. Thank You.

i don’t understand why me and my coworker worked the EXACT same hours and entered the parking before 10am and got out before 12 at night I have to pay $ 17 dollar and he paid $ 8 dollars, something just doesn’t add up. I hope i can dispute the transaction since i don’t think this is fair.

I just stayed at the westin a block away. Much better alternative for parking if you are just leaving it in the lot overnight (no in/​out). Parking at hotel was $ 42! This one ended up being $ 14 from 10:30pm sat night until noon Sunday. Enter via 3^rd street for ABM as there is another entrance off Figueroa which is managed by a different company and is $ 36 daily rate. You pay on exit to flower street via credit card only. Great alternative and so much cheaper!

Update:
So WTC parking is own by 2 different companies. Standard Parking is the bigger lot and it’s $ 8 if you enter before 1030 AM and all day will cost you $ 36. The other lot own by ABM (exact same building) is also $ 8 but only if you enter before 10 AM. After 10 AM, you can park all day cap at $ 16 (same as Pershing Square’s daily max). Keep in mind tho, if you use the wrong entrance, daily max is either $ 16 or $ 32, so choose your entrance carefully.
For the people wanting to buy the monthly pass, Standard Parking office is located on site within the WTC parking structure on level C. The ABM, the company running the smaller parking lot is located in the Gas Company tower.

$ 8 all day early bird special. One of the cheapest early bird specials in this area that I’ve seen, even cheaper than Pershing Square’s Early Bird. If you dont make it in time for early bird, all day parking will cost you $ 36 or $ 16 depending on which side of the lot you entered (more clarification below) so make sure you enter in the correct time frame with the correct entrance.
Self check out when you exit. Monthly Pass available. Some downfalls: unlike Pershing Square, there’s less open spots here, the place really fills up fast. Also, the spaces are very small and I have not seen anyone patrolling the lot. Moreover, the parking building itself is structurally confusing. There’s ramps going up and there’s ramps going down but somehow you’re still on the same freaking floor after going on those ramps.

I was thrilled to park here and save some money while staying at the Westin next door. There is easy access by skyway to the hotel and the lot was pretty much empty on the weekend.
