Through the generous support of the Alliance for Pioneer Square the Free parking program will return to select garages from 5-10 pm on August 5, 2021.* Patrons must simply pick up a free parking voucher from a neighborhood gallery and present it to the parking attendant when leaving the garage. The Alliance will be creating and distributing maps with the SDAF branding to the participating SDAF galleries along with the parking vouchers.
