Parking Options

WESBANCO CUSTOMER PARKING LOT
WesBanco Customer parking lot is adjacent to the WesBanco Building. This free, off-street parking lot is available on a first-come basis for clients and visitors to tenants of the WesBanco Building, including the Law Offices of Marci R. Carroll, as well as bank customers. (Do not let the bank customers only signs deter you.) There is a handicapped parking space which will accommodate a van in this parking lot on the far, right-hand side.

MADISON ST. PARKING GARAGE
This is a paid, unattended parking garage at the far end of Adams Street (Jackson Street end), 1 block away from our Law Offices and near the post office. Cost is 50¢ per hour or $2.00 for 4 or more hours, using an unattended pay system; upon exiting, you may pay in coins or paper money or by credit card.

UPTOWN PARKING
Uptown Parking is a private, attended lot. This gravel lot is located on the left side of Adams Street at the Monroe Street intersection. To enter, turn left at the intersection of Adams St. and Monroe St., then left into the lot entrance, wait for the attendant to park your vehicle. Cost is 75¢ per hour or $4.00 for all day; be prepared to leave your vehicle keys with the attendant and to pick them up before 5:00 p.m. (or have a spare set with you; they can lock the set that you give them in your car upon request).

ON-STREET PARKING
Parking on the main streets of downtown is metered. On Adams St., the meters are 25¢ per ½ hour, with 1 hour maximum time. Most of the cross street and other street (Monroe Street, Jefferson Street, Madison Street, Jackson Street, and Washington Street) meters are 25¢ per hour and have 2 hour maximum time limits. Please keep in mind that interrupting your appointment to "feed the meter" is disruptive and discouraged. Further, we have found that the 1 hour meters frequently do not allow sufficient time for initial consultations or appointments. On-street parking includes several designated handicapped parking spaces throughout the length of Adams Street but only up through the courthouse area. The on-street handicapped parking closest to the WesBanco Building is located in front of the Jefferson Street side of the Marion County Courthouse.
