Hourly

If you prefer to pay parking by the hour you can pay at on-site pay stations (Visa and Mastercard only, no cash or coins accepted) or easily online via the Honk Contactless Parking system (Payable with Visa, Mastercard, Visa Debit, or Paypal). Using Honk, there’s no app download required and the system should be able to recognize the lot you’re in by your current location if location sharing permissions are on. All you have to do is sign up to register your vehicle, and purchase parking.

If you do not allow location sharing permissions for Honk, you will need to know the zone number of the parking lot you are in. The zone will be displayed on Honk signage in each lot with accompanying QR codes.
