Largest enclosed outlet mall in Northern California (Simon Property Group). Category (a) genuinely free retail parking: large free surface lots surrounding the mall plus free parking garages, no gate or validation. EV charging available. Important: the free mall lots are separate from the adjacent VTA Great Mall light-rail station / Milpitas BART transit-center parking, which is PAID. This entry is the mall's own free shopper parking only. ParkMe lists the mall lot as 'Customers Only: Free'; Simon's official mall page states 'The parking is free for all customers.'
