There's even savings with parking garages on Cyber Monday....

From a press release today:

The Albany Parking Authority announces a special “Seasonal Savings” rate for its three downtown parking garages, from December 2012 through March 2013. Drivers can park in the Riverfront, Green-Hudson and Quackenbush garages for a flat rate of $100/month, for up to 4 months.

“The wide availability of parking downtown is more convenient than ever during the snowy winter months,” said Michael Klein, Executive Director of the Albany Parking Authority. “No matter what the weather is like outside, our three downtown garages are open and easily accessible between 6 a.m. and midnight, and our Riverfront Garage is open 24 hours a day.”

The Albany Parking Authority is continuing to provide more options for drivers in downtown Albany by offering this Seasonal Savings initiative to make parking more convenient and affordable. Drivers that take advantage of this program can see savings up to $160 by taking advantage of the $100/month rate for four months. Monthly parking rates in downtown garages normally cost $140/month.

Capital Region residents are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity and save money on monthly parking during the holiday season. Beginning the week of November 26^th, customers can contact the Albany Parking Authority, visit: http://www.parkalbany.com or email SeasonalSavings@parkalbany.com for more information on how to apply for Seasonal Savings.

The APA’s three downtown garages are convenient and well lit. The 850-space Riverfront Garage is open to the public 24 hours a day seven days a week all year including the winter months with few exceptions, (it closes for six major holidays). The Green-Hudson and Quackenbush Garages are both open 6 a.m. to midnight.
