Parking at Passaic County Community College’s Paterson Campus
The campus has open parking areas beside the college facility, including designated handicapped parking, while street parking is also available under City rules (pccc.edu). The official campus map identifies the Broadway Parking Garage as parking for PCCC students and staff with a permit, with the garage located at 125 Broadway between Broadway and Memorial Drive (pccc.edu; course-catalog.com).
Visitors should use the marked Visitor Parking area, reached by GPS at 203 Ellison Street, rather than the permit garage (pccc.edu). The student handbook says access to the Broadway garage is provided through a PCCC student ID card, which must be swiped when entering (pccc.edu).
Other Parking Around Downtown Paterson
Street parking around the campus is a practical alternative to the college garage, but drivers must obey City of Paterson parking requirements (pccc.edu). The campus sits 95 yards from Paterson center, so central-street spaces can be useful for short visits when the designated visitor area is busy.
The Broadway garage is the main non-street option shown in the college’s campus information, but it is already covered as the campus facility rather than an independent nearby car park. For a visitor, the marked area at 203 Ellison Street is the clearest official destination because the campus map labels it specifically as Visitor Parking (pccc.edu).
Parksy Spaces for PCCC Students and Visitors
A parking lot in Paterson is 0.9 miles from the campus and costs $7 a day. It is the closest priced Parksy option listed here, making it a useful choice for a student or visitor who needs a full day without relying on the permit garage. A garage space in Paterson is 1.1 miles away at $8 a day, offering a nearby alternative for drivers who prefer covered parking.
For longer arrangements, a private parking space in Woodland Park is 3.4 miles away at $200 a month. A parking lot in Hackensack is 6.7 miles away at $150 a month. The Paterson choices suit campus visits best, while the monthly spaces are more relevant to staff or students able to leave a car outside the immediate campus area.
Busy Periods and Street Restrictions Near the Paterson Campus
Parking demand is likely to be greatest when classes are running and when students and staff are arriving together, because the Broadway garage is designated for permit holders and the campus also provides a separate visitor area (pccc.edu). Open days and other college events can increase visitor demand around the marked Visitor Parking location at 203 Ellison Street.
Street parking requires particular care because PCCC states that users must obey City of Paterson rules (pccc.edu). The college’s public safety information identifies open parking beside the facility, street parking, designated handicapped spaces, the visitor area, and the permit garage as separate parts of the campus parking arrangement (pccc.edu). Drivers attending an event should allow extra time to reach the correct area rather than assuming the student and staff garage is available to visitors.

The campus address is 1 College Boulevard, in Paterson, New Jersey, and it is 95 yards from Paterson center.
