Photo: [Pexels](https://www.pexels.com) ## Parking Near Sydney Observatory on Upper Fort Street Sydney Observatory is at 1003 Upper Fort Street in Millers Point, near Barangaroo. The attraction itself sits within Observatory Hill Park, which is managed by the City of Sydney (cityofsydney.nsw.gov.au). For a straightforward drive, the nearest recommended facility shown for the attraction is Clocktower Car Park at 55 Harrington Street, The Rocks, 0.27 km away (wilsonparking.com.au). [Wilson Parking](https://www.parksy.com/blog/wilson-parking-review-pros-cons-summary-services) lists Clocktower Car Park with a displayed rate from $20 (wilsonparking.com.au). The same operator identifies the facility as one of the car parks serving the area around the site (wilsonparking.com.au). Parking at the attraction is therefore best approached as a short walk from The Rocks rather than as a dedicated museum car park. ## Parksy Spaces Within 290 Metres of the Site Parksy lists a private parking space in Central Sydney 170 m away for $50 a week. A secure garage parking space in Central Sydney is 200 m away and costs $8 an hour, while a secure private parking space in Sydney CBD is 240 m away at $35 a day. The secure garage is priced hourly for a shorter stop, while the private Central Sydney space is listed weekly. The daily Sydney CBD space is positioned between those arrangements for a full-day visit near Millers Point, near Barangaroo. Show map of Barangaroo ## Clocktower, Barangaroo Point and Other Nearby Choices Clocktower Car Park is the named Wilson Parking facility at 55 Harrington Street, The Rocks, with entry from that street and a displayed rate from $20 (wilsonparking.com.au). It is an undercover car park open 7 days a week (wilsonparking.com.au). Parksy also lists secure commercial garage parking in The Rocks, NSW, 270 m away for $46 an hour. A secure underground parking space in Sydney CBD is 290 m away for $45 a day, and Clocktower Car Park parking in Sydney CBD is 290 m away for $15 an hour. Observatory Hill Park is a City of Sydney park (cityofsydney.nsw.gov.au), so drivers should use a named facility rather than assume the park provides visitor parking. ## Busy Visits and Street Parking Around Millers Point Observatory Hill Park has panoramic views and close proximity to the fireworks, making the area particularly attractive during Sydney New Year’s Eve (cityofsydney.nsw.gov.au; sydneynewyearseve.com). Fireworks crowds can place heavier pressure on nearby parking than an ordinary museum visit, especially around the western side of Sydney Harbour Bridge (sydneynewyearseve.com). The City of Sydney lists parking permits among the local services for Observatory Hill Park (cityofsydney.nsw.gov.au). Parking around Upper Fort Street and the surrounding Millers Point streets is therefore governed by signed street restrictions and permit controls, rather than being an unrestricted overflow area.
