Parking

Street Parking
On Sundays you may park on K Street in front of the church, but at other times it and other nearby streets are no-parking zones until 6:30 p.m.  Look for and read carefully all neighborhood parking signs!

Off-Street Parking
For a downtown parish, we are fortunate to be able to park up to 63 cars for the Sunday morning 9:00 a.m. service and for all special services, including weddings and funerals.  And we can park 53 cars for the 11:15 a.m. Sunday service.  Three of the 63 spaces are available through the courtesy of D.C. Police Precinct #2 and 12 through the courtesy of the Madison Hotel, which owns the 925 Apartments on 25th Street and the warehouse behind the apartments at the south end of Snow’s Court.  (An interesting Foggy Bottom story is that the warehouse was once used as stables for the White House.)

In addition, through the courtesy of George Washington University, we have overflow parking privileges at a surface lot on New Hampshire Avenue, just off Washington Circle, and in a garage at 2211 H Street.  Parking lot attendants will give persons who arrive after the regular spaces are filled directions and materials authorizing them to use either the lot or the garage at no cost to them.  However, persons using those facilities without first obtaining authorizing materials from our parking lot attendants will be ticketed at the lot and charged the regular parking fee at the garage. 

To be reasonably certain of obtaining a parking place in the St. Paul’s lot on Sunday morning, parishioners and visitors should arrive prior to the beginning of the service they are attending, although there often are spaces available for latecomers.  Be aware, however, that at 9:15 am the attendants leave the lot and block off any remaining spaces in the middle of the lot where parkers surrender their keys.  We close off those remaining spaces because we are required to have keys for all cars in the middle in the event of an emergency during the service.  The keys that are surrendered are secured in the sacristy and are returned to the cars immediately after the service ends.

To be reasonably assured of parking in our lot on major Feast Days, you should arrive no later than a half hour before the service and even earlier for Maundy Thursday, Easter Vigil and Christmas Eve services.

The 12 spaces made available by the Madison Hotel at the south end of Snow’s Court are reserved for the Choir, and 4 of our regular spaces are reserved for the clergy and the Music Director.  That leaves 47 spaces for other parishioners and visitors on a first-come-first-served basis.  Spaces may be reserved, however, for the handicapped, visiting clergy, or parishioners who have been assigned special duties that require them to arrive at other than regular times.

The parking lot is accessed by proceeding north on 25th Street to Snow’s Court, which is midway between I and K Streets.  Turn right into Snow’s Court (the only alley between I and K Streets).  At the end of the alley, turn left and proceed about 50 feet to the lot.

For further information, please call Atlee Shidler, St. Paul’s Parking Director, at 202-333-3022.  If he is unavailable, call Melva Willis, Parish Administrator, at 202-337-2020 ext.13.
