New City parking ramp with skywalk access opens in downtown Duluth
[Duluth, MN] - Anyone coming downtown for special events such as Grandma's Marathon will have a nice new parking option with the convenience of skywalk connectivity and within a few minutes walking distance of the harbor-front venues. With the completion of the new maurices Headquarters, it also signifies the opening of the City's newest parking ramp at 410 West 1st Street and a new public skywalk that were constructed as part of the project. The latest skywalk segment connects eastern downtown to the Radisson Hotel and the Duluth Public Library. The skywalk will operate from 7 AM to 7 PM every day, with extended hours possible for special events.
The new city-owned public parking ramp with 481 spaces is accessible from entry points at West First Street or the alley off of 5th Ave West, just above Superior Street, with skywalk access from the 2nd floor of maurices. Hourly parking is offered at the rate of $2 per hour. Rates are a flat fee of $3 for Saturdays, Sundays, and for evening parkers who arrive after 4:00 PM and exit before 6:00 AM the next day. Special event rates will be posted at the facility entrances. Hourly customers may pay with a credit/debit card or cash.
The ramp also offers monthly parking contracts, which are available by contacting the parking office of Interstate Parking.
