Auto Parking in Alameda

On February 3, 2026, dedicated security and midweek paid parking will launch at the Seaplane Lagoon Ferry Terminal. Paid parking will help make spaces available when you need them, and will offset security costs. Download the ParkSmarter app so you can pay after boarding your ferry!

In November 2025, the City began constructing a major renovation project to improve the Civic Center garage at Oak/Central.

Alameda aims to manage curb space and public parking to best meet our community’s needs, reducing automobile traffic and greenhouse gas emissions, providing access to services and facilities, and supporting the City’s commercial areas.
