Parking Lot Information

The 8th and Market lot uses the parking app, Metropolis. Here's how it works:


First, Register your phone or device. Please add your license plate and credit card. (You only need to do this once.)

The application will send you a text message when your parking visit starts. Use this link to access your parking session. Before leaving campus, scan the QR code at the front desk to apply our discount. 

Just drive in and drive out.  No tickets, No waiting. Our Promise.  Your parking session is automatically charged to your credit card when you exit the parking lot.

The discounted rates are as follows for 8th and Market St. lot:

  • Monday through Friday (enter after 3pm) = $7
  • Saturday = $7

The Parkade at 8th and Arch is operated by PPA and uses a voucher system. Here's how it works:

When you enter the garage, you will receive a QR ticket. When you enter the Philly Center, you must ask for a PPA voucher from the front desk. When you leave the garage, you will scan your QR ticket and then our voucher. The discount will be applied. Tap or insert your credit card to pay and exit. 

You may park in the parkade anytime up to 12 hours for $7.
