## Capitol Visitors Parking Garage Near Texas State Capitol

The Capitol Visitors Parking Garage is the official facility to use when driving to the Texas State Capitol. The State Preservation Board lists the first 2 hours as free, followed by a charge of $1 for each half hour. The maximum daily charge is $12, while the maximum daily charge can vary up to $25 (tspb.texas.gov).

The State Preservation Board’s visitor parking page identifies the garage as part of the Capitol complex and provides parking information for visitors. The Capitol Complex Parking Map also distinguishes visitor facilities from parking facilities reserved for state employees with Capitol Complex parking permits (tspb.texas.gov). Drivers heading for 112 East 11th Street can use the official garage rather than relying on a street space close to the building.

## Congress Avenue and Capitol Tower Garages

Several Parksy spaces sit within a short walk of the site. A garage space at 823 Congress is 191 yards away and costs $8 an hour.

Capitol Tower has three nearby covered or secure garage listings, each 263 yards from the site. Each is offered at $250 a month, giving drivers a monthly option close to the Capitol complex. These spaces are all nearer than a longer downtown search, with the 823 Congress and Capitol Tower locations concentrated around the blocks immediately south and east of the site.

## Austin Street Parking Around East 11th Street

Parking pressure is likely to be highest when Capitol visitors, state employees, and downtown traffic converge around the complex. The Capitol Complex Parking Map shows separate facilities for state employees with Capitol Complex parking permits, so a permit-only facility is not a substitute for visitor parking (tspb.texas.gov).

Drivers should distinguish visitor parking from employee facilities before entering a Capitol complex lot. The State Preservation Board identifies the Capitol Visitors Parking Garage as the visitor facility, while the complex map marks other parking facilities as open to state employees with Capitol Complex parking permits (tspb.texas.gov). The closest street spaces should therefore be treated as limited alternatives rather than the main plan for a visit.

## Parksy Spaces Within 278 Yards of the Capitol

Parksy lists an $8-an-hour garage space at 823 Congress, 191 yards from the site. The closest monthly choices are secure garage spaces at Capitol Tower, 263 yards away, each priced at $250 a month. Three separate Capitol Tower listings provide the same distance and monthly price, including covered parking.

Further nearby choices include an 823 Congress garage 271 yards away for $10 an hour and secure garage parking in downtown Austin 278 yards away for $10.78 an hour. The distances keep every listed Parksy option within a compact downtown walk of 112 East 11th Street, while the hourly and monthly choices suit different visit lengths.

## Walking From Austin Station to the Capitol

Austin is the nearest station listed for the site, at 1.0 mile away and a 21-minute walk.

The site is also 0.2 miles from Austin center, placing it close to the central city rather than at the edge of the visitor area. Drivers using one of the nearby garages can combine parking with a short downtown walk, while station users should allow the full 21-minute walk from Austin for the approach to 112 East 11th Street.
