FAQ
Which Boston listings have a free-parking rule?
8 of the 9 listings have a free-parking rule, including Natick Mall, Arsenal Yards (Purple Garage & Red Garage), CambridgeSide - Snow Emergency Resident Parking, Encore Boston Harbor - Self-Parking Garage and Encore Boston Harbor - Community Parking Lot. Check eligibility, hours, and any required procedure on each listing and its linked official terms.
Which parking garage in Boston gives the longest free period on entry?
Assembly Row (all visitor garages) has the longest initial free period in this list at 3 hours. License-plate recognition (Metropolis) at entry/exit - no ticket, app, or registration required to leave free within 3 hours. Registering a Metropolis account is optional and only needed to auto-bill stays over 3 hours. Applies uniformly across all seven Assembly Row garages (Assembly Marketplace, Canal Street, Partners, Foley Street, Artisan West, Artisan East, Great River). Since 28 May 2025 entry/exit runs on LPR; drivers under 3 hours simply drive out with no gate transaction. A new business day begins at 5:00 AM, so a vehicle still parked after that time is charged for an additional day. Check its eligibility and registration requirements before using it.
