## Parking at James Smith Corner on Manners Street

James Smith Corner is at 99A Manners Street in Wellington, near Wellington Central. The centre’s associated James Smith Car Park is operated by Prime Parking, with casual, overnight, weekend and [monthly parking](https://www.parksy.com/blog/find-monthly-parking-near-me-practical-guide) available (primeparking.co.nz).

Prime Parking advertises parking at James Smith Car Park for $199, and a guaranteed park for $280 all-inclusive per month (primeparking.co.nz). The car park is a nine-storey building at 150 Wakefield Street (miyamoto.co.nz), while a report about its reopening says it returns 100 car parks to the central city (thepost.co.nz).

For drivers approaching the retail centre, the car park’s published location at 150 Wakefield Street places the parking building away from the 99A Manners Street address. The available operator information identifies the casual, overnight, weekend and monthly options, but does not provide a [free parking](https://www.parksy.com/parking-near-me) period or opening hours.

## Named Alternatives Around the Manners Street Centre

Prime Parking’s James Smith Car Park is the main named alternative associated with the centre, at 150 Wakefield Street. Its operator describes casual, overnight, weekend and monthly parking, so it can suit a driver who wants a formal car park rather than a kerbside space (primeparking.co.nz).

A council heritage page identifies the James Smith Building at the corner of Cuba and Manners Streets and says the former department store closed in 1993 and is now a retail centre (wellington.govt.nz). This places the shopping destination in the central-city street network, close to the Cuba Street and Manners Street corner.

The reopening report describes the James Smith car park as a long-closed facility returning to use, with 100 central-city car parks (thepost.co.nz). The building itself is a nine-storey car park at 150 Wakefield Street, according to the project description (miyamoto.co.nz).

## Parksy Spaces Closest to JSC

The closest priced Parksy option is a secure 24/7 garage parking space in Wellington, 120 m away. A secure Lombard Car Park driveway space in Te Aro is 130 m away at $3 an hour, while a secure parking space in central Wellington is also 130 m away but has no published price.

A convenient Bond Street car park is 170 m away at $5 an hour. A secure 24/7 parking lot in Wellington is 180 m away at $189 a day. The 120 m and 130 m spaces are practical when a short walk is preferable to entering the centre’s parking building.

The Lombard Street option is the lowest priced hourly Parksy space listed near the centre, making it the clearer choice for a brief visit. The 24/7 lot may suit a full-day stay, while the Bond Street space offers another hourly alternative when its location works better for the driver.

## Busy Times and Parking Rules Near Manners Street

The James Smith Car Park offers casual, overnight, weekend and monthly parking, according to Prime Parking (primeparking.co.nz). Those options make the facility relevant for shopping visits, evening stays, weekend trips and regular central-city parking.

The reopening report says the central-city James Smith car park was returning 100 car parks to use (thepost.co.nz). A larger facility can be useful during busy shopping periods, although the published material does not give a separate event schedule or weekend operating timetable.

Prime Parking advertises a guaranteed park for $280 all-inclusive per month and parking for $199 at James Smith Car Park (primeparking.co.nz). The published operator and council material does not provide a time limit, free period or enforcement schedule for the centre parking.

## Walking From Wellington Railway Station to James Smith Corner

Wellington Railway Station is the nearest listed station to James Smith Corner, at 1.4 km from the centre. The walk takes 18 minutes, making rail a realistic option for visitors who would rather avoid central-city parking.

The centre is at 99A Manners Street in Wellington, near Wellington Central. Wellington Central centre is 210 m away, so visitors already in the central area can approach the shopping centre on foot rather than move a car between nearby streets.

For a rail arrival, allow the full 18-minute walk from Wellington Railway Station. Drivers using a nearby Parksy space can combine parking with a short final walk, while the 1.4 km station distance makes rail more suitable for people travelling into central Wellington.
