the true trick to parking downtown is having a plan📍

basic. is located at 2214 2nd avenue north, birmingham, al 35203.

all downtown birmingham metered parking is now a part of the parkMobile app. we HIGHLY recommend that you download + set up the parkMobile app before you head downtown.

you'll need your car make + model and your license plate number to set up your parkMobile account.

our parking recommendations:

— parkMobile zone 2785, beside bizarre coffee bar. this lot is accessible via 22nd street.

— parkMobile zone 28262, most of the street parking near us. the side streets are your best bet here.

— parkMobile zone 2787, right behind bocca. accessible from 2nd ave and 23rd.

— city federal parking deck public parking: only a block and half down and a lovely walk

**DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES PARK IN THE LOT ON THE CORNER OF 2ND AND 22ND BY LEVY'S. IT'S ABOUT 99% LIKELY THAT YOU'LL BE TOWED EVEN IF YOU PAY.**
