Public Parking

What Public Parking does

Public Parking is a privately-held, multi-location parking operator running 8 owned or operated facilities across the New York City metropolitan area — specifically Long Island City (2 sites), Midtown East, West Village, East Village, Williamsburg (Brooklyn), and South Kearny, New Jersey. The company provides daily, overnight, and monthly parking for conventional passenger cars as well as oversized commercial vehicles including trucks and tractor-trailers, with EV charging available at select locations (29-17 40th Avenue, Long Island City; Charles Street Garage, West Village). Pricing is uniformly quote-based and varies by vehicle dimensions; no rates are publicly disclosed.

The company holds its facilities under a network of separately named subsidiary entities — Pearson Street Parking Corp., Public Parking Mgmt. CEJ Corp., 12 Garage Corp., Charles Street Garage, Public Parking 50 North 5th Street Inc., and Public Parking 200 E. 15th Street Inc. — a legal structure consistent with site-level real estate ownership common in the NYC parking industry. The technology stack is entirely third-party: customer-facing online reservations for large vehicle parking are delivered through the ParkingBase platform, and back-office operations use valetmanager.com. There is no proprietary technology, no patents or trademarks, no certifications, and no in-house engineering footprint referenced.

Revenue is generated from two streams: transaction-based daily and overnight parking fees scaled by vehicle size, and recurring monthly subscription revenue collected via downloadable application and credit card authorization templates. The go-to-market motion is direct-to-consumer, relying on physical walk-ins, phone inquiries to a main office line and after-hours support line, online reservation booking, and organic local search. There are no disclosed funding rounds, no M&A activity, no leadership profiles, no named enterprise customers, and no institutional ownership indicators — consistent with a small, owner-operated real estate services business rather than a venture-backed growth company.
