Commuter Timing and Daily Parking Limits

MARTA parking decks are open 24 hours a day, but the Edgewood/Candler Park facility is identified as a surface lot rather than a deck (itsmarta.com). Drivers planning an early departure or a late return should treat the 14-hour daily allowance as the relevant station-parking rule and avoid leaving a vehicle overnight.

Street Parking Around the Atlanta Station
The station address is 1475 DeKalb Avenue Northeast in Atlanta, near Old Fourth Ward. The MARTA lot is located on the DeKalb Avenue side of the station (itsmarta.com), so drivers looking for station parking should use the dedicated surface lot rather than treating nearby curb space as an extension of the facility.
