The City of Sarasota offers a variety of parking options to accommodate residents, visitors, and businesses. In the Downtown area, there are four (4) public parking facilities, three which are centrally located in downtown and one (1) on St. Armand Key near Lido Beach. With over 1,300 covered parking spaces in Downtown please consider using either the State Street, Palm Avenue, or 2nd Street/Whole Food's parking garage. Convenient on-street parking is also available at approximately 3,000 public parking spaces within the City of Sarasota where 1,100 are metered parking spaces. With an eye on improving foot traffic to our downtown merchants, the City has embarked on implementation of metered parking on the busiest and desirable areas of downtown. Additionally, off-street surface parking lots are dispersed across the city, providing both short-term and long-term parking needs.
