Icon Parking

A Parking garage at 205 E 38th St in Midtown. One of the larger options in Kips Bay, with straightforward entry just off 3rd Avenue. Drivers pull in from the side street and roll straight toward an elevator that climbs to the upper levels, trimming the usual garage shuffle. Early birds sometimes snag the last two floors; everyone else circles the lower decks before the system lets them in.

Short-term and long-term rates unfold on a digital board by the gate; tap your ticket on the way out and the kiosk tallies the balance. Disability-accessible spots line the perimeter on every floor. Night hours flip the pay station’s policy—after midnight you pay when you leave, not before. Valet dropped off in a hurry can grab a ride-along elevator to the street level without threading the aisles.

Management posts a six-month maximum for those stashing vehicles beyond daily commuting, a quiet cap that keeps turnover steady in the neighborhood. A text reminder service pings two days before your spot is flagged; reply STOP to end alerts without calling. Security cameras sweep the lot twenty-four hours, while license-plate readers log entries only at the plaza entrance.

Find your way faster with the map listing. Dial 646-964-4339 to ask about availability 24/7. Right around the corner are coffee shops and delis that don’t mind a parked car in front for half an hour.
