New parking garage in downtown Silver Spring

There's a new parking option in downtown Silver Spring. Montgomery County Public Parking Garage 3 is now open to the public. Also known as the Thayer-Silver Spring Garage, it is located at the rear of the new Thayer & Spring apartment complex. The new garage is only accessible from Silver Spring Avenue.

The garage features 155 parking spaces (40 short-term, and 115 long-term), six handicapped spaces, 28 bicycle spaces, and four pay stations where you pay in advance by your space number. Parking fees are charged only on weekdays between 7:00 AM and 7:00 PM, according to the County's Division of Parking Management website.

    good to know - one of the entrance gates was down the other day at the Wayne ave garage and there was a massive traffic jam because of that. THanks for the info!

    Does this mean that the county will shut down at least one of the other half empty parking lots and replace it with something useful?

      2:52: It certainly does make that option more viable. Kind of like when they opened the new 900-space garage by Bethesda Row - it's now a lot easier to redevelop the old Bethesda Row parking deck as a mixed-use building, or even a as a park if leaders were that forward-thinking.
