Introduction
The Sophia Street Parking Garage (600 Sophia Street) opened to the public on November 3, 2005. The garage provides 297 parking spaces. For more information, contact the Parking Office in the lobby of the Executive Plaza (the building attached to the deck), or call (540) 371-8542.

The City congratulates Donley's (the design-builder) for delivering this project on time and within budget. Many City departments provided extraordinary assistance to meet the aggressive schedule of the design-builder (Building and Development Services; Public Works; Parks, Recreation, and Public Facilities; Planning and Community Development; Fire; Police; Fiscal Affairs; and Tourism and Business Development).

Hours of Operation
The Sophia Street Parking Garage is accessible 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The garage will be served by a parking attendant: Monday through Friday (7:00 a.m. - 7:00 p.m.); Saturday (8:00 a.m. - 7:00 p.m.); and Sunday/Holidays (9:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.). These attendants provide customer service to parking patrons, and assist with light-duty maintenance. The Parking Office is located on the first floor of the Executive Plaza (601 Caroline Street).

The garage access and payment system is fully automated. Customers use convenient payment stations located near the entrance on Wolfe Street and near the pedestrian walkway leading to Caroline Street. These payment stations accept cash and credit cards. Attendants are not needed for patrons to use the garage. Please refer to the Sophia Street Parking Garage Brochure* for more information about the automated access and revenue control system.
