Pier 30 Parking

Do not park here! My car along with 10 others were broken into while security was on duty. No cars were parked in hidden spots, and in broad day light. Crazy!

Pier 30 Parking was awesome. My family and I were going to the SF Giants game and wanted a quick parking location that would get us to AT&T park without too much congestion. We were glad to find that Pier 30 Parking was accessible and fairly inexpensive (for San Francisco). We paid $ 30 for parking and it was definitely worth it.
We parked and it was about a 10 – 15 minute walk to the park. I had to deduct at star because getting out of the parking lot was a major hassle since we had to wait for pedestrian traffic to die down before we would safely exit the parking lot.

I love this parking lot. Minus one star for no longer being open. Which brings me to the question… is this parking lot ever going to open again? I can’t afford to come to work anymore.

Saw this in an SF Giants Jottings email —
«Due to Piers ³⁰⁄₃₂ being readied for America’s Cup activities, parking for fans attending games and events at AT&T Park will not be available at this location during the 2013 season.»

Good news everyone. They are not closing the lot. I can attest they really do close the lot at 11:00pm. Had to leave my car in the city one night.

It’s too bad they’ll be getting rid of this parking lot for the 1% having their Yacht races here next year! The view from the lot is actually one of the best in the city for looking at the East Bay and the Bridge, the moon, and SF.

$ 9 a day or $ 140 per month. Probably the best parking deal in SF.
You park the car yourself and you get to keep your keys.
They have a shuttle service that runs every 15 mins that will take you to/​from Mission/​Main.
The only drawback is that they really do close at 11 pm… they do close and lock the gate after 11 pm.
FYI — the lot will close after the first quarter of 2012 due to the America’s Cup renovations.

I haven’t written many reviews on Unilocal,usually I find the existing reviews more than adequate. But I feel compelled to write one here looking at the too few — and unreasonably negatively skewed — reviews here.
Here’s a task for you.
Go around the downtown area from King Street to Market (and beyond), from Embarcadero to 4^th, 5^th, or even 6^th street, and try to find a parking spot that beats one, some, or all of these features of this spot:
1. It’s a huge parking spot — you’ll never ever run into a situation when it’s so full that you can’t park here.
2. It’s $ 9 for all day parking (yes, early-​bird, but that’s as late as 9 am).
3. You can park until 11 pm! Go ahead, show me another lot where you can do park till 11 pm .
3. Unlimited In-​and-​Out! Again, go find another lot where you can do that — and at this price.
4. FREE shuttle service to the Financial District, every 15 minutes, until 8:30 pm.
5. Location: but you didn’t need me to tell you that. Still — when you get here early in the day or are going home late in the night, take a moment to soak in the beauty of the Bay Bridge with a spectacular view. Walk all the way to the end towards the water for a more private moment …
Finally, since you’ve read through my entire review, here’s a useful tip for you — especially first-​timers or the still uninitated:
Use the code ‘999’ for your parking spot number on the pay-​box. Don’t bother trying to note your parking spot number (most of them are barely visible, and they don’t care about it anyway).

Beware of this parking lot. I recently had my car towed from a legal parking space in the area designated for Reds Java House. I was told I had 23 outstanding tickets. This was news to me since I have never received a ticket on my car. In fact I haven’t used this lot more then ten times. When I attempted to speak to a representative I was placed on hold for more then an hour. Finally I spoke to representative in the San Francisco office. The man was rude, abusive, and very arrogant. I was told it is not Impark’s responsibility if tickets are not on the window. I was then to told «just pay the fine you got caught.» When I asked why notices were not sent out to people with outstanding tickets, they responded it wasn’t their responsibility. It took three phone calls to have copies of the tickets emailed to me. When they arrived a photo of my credit card was included. I never gave them permission to photo copy my credit card. When I inquired about this I was told not to call back again.
As I further investigated I found numerous people who were also told they have outstanding tickets without receiving a ticket on their car. Impark are nothing more than MASTERS OF EXTORTION! Thankfully this lot is closing. DON’T PARK YOUR CAR THERE UNLESS YOU WANT TO BE RIPPED OFF.

LOVE this place to park .They have an early bird special for $ 9.00 (get there by 10am) or utilize
and prepay $ 9.20. The lot has a pay machine near the entrance/​exit to pay for your spot.
It’s one of the cheapest places around to park all day and super easy to get to. It’s right next to the Red Java coffee place before the Bay Bridge at Bryant and Embarcadero.
A few high points:
–Within walking distance of ballpark
–About a 20 – 25 minute walk to the heart of the Financial District
–SUPER easy access to freeway. I usually leave and take Brannan to 280. Sometimes when the weather is crappy, Brannan can back up, but other than that, it’s not that bad.
–Awesome views of the Bay Bridge
–About a 10 minute walk to Ferry Building
–Did I mention the early bird special of $ 9?
–They do offer free shuttles in the morning to certain parts of the city.
