Parking Promise
This summer, we are promising parkers that you can literally park here and go anywhere. We know what the economic realities of rising gas prices bring and we are doing everything we can to ensure you can still truly experience Chicago’s summer bests via your preferred mode of transportation. Millennium Garages pledges to parkers the most economical, safest and centrally-located parking experience for suburbanites, out-of-towners, and city dwellers alike when they partake in the sights and sounds of Chicago this summer.
The Millennium Garages Summer Parking Promise promises you a spot will be available in one of the 4 garages; if none are available in any of the garages, Millennium Garages will give you a $50 gas gift card.
Have a great summer and we will see you soon!
