Station Parking at Lexington Avenue–53rd Street/51st Street
The station itself has no car park listed for drivers. Its entrances and platforms extend along Lexington Avenue between East 51st Street and East 53rd Street in Midtown East, near Manhattan, while the address used for the station is 122 East 51st Street.
The practical approach is to reserve a nearby garage rather than expect station-operated parking at the entrance. The closest Parksy option is a garage space 100 yd away, priced at $20 an hour, which suits a short stop when proximity matters more than keeping the total cost low.
Street Parking Around 51st and Lexington Avenue
The station sits on a busy Midtown East street corridor, with the subway station stretching from 51st Street to 53rd Street along Lexington Avenue (Wikipedia). The surrounding blocks are served by New York City curb regulations, so a space on the street may be subject to posted payment, stopping, standing, loading, cleaning, or commercial-vehicle restrictions.
Street parking is a poor fit for a rail journey when the vehicle must remain for several hours.

At 185 yd, valet parking at 128 East 53rd Street is listed at $25 a day, with two separate garage options at that address. A garage space 191 yd away costs $42 an hour, making it more suitable for a brief visit than an all-day commute. The 100 yd garage at $20 an hour is the closest hourly choice.
Commuter Planning for the Station

The $25-a-day valet option at 128 East 53rd Street adds another daily alternative, while the $20-an-hour and $42-an-hour spaces provide flexibility when a daily booking is unnecessary.
