Parking Guidelines

The location of our church — in the heart of downtown Orlando — brings a concern for available parking by congregation members and visitors alike. Here are some guidelines to consider:

  • If you can walk, enjoy a Sunday morning walk and use the seven floor Signature parking garage (closes at 1 p.m.) on the corner of Jackson Street and Magnolia Avenue (access on Jackson). These locations are currently available only on Sundays, unless otherwise noted in the publicity of a particular event.
  • We are thrilled to have 70 spaces below our building in an underground garage. On Sundays, let us reserve those spaces for those with limited mobility or families with small children.
  • On Sundays, the parking lot at the Ledbetter/Asbury Buildings will be reserved those with limited mobility, visitors and valet parking. During the week, it is for the use of our Wesley Child Development Center.
  • During the week, there are nine spaces in front of our church building at the Jackson Street entrance, which will be used for short-term parking (30 minutes or less). On Sundays, that lot is reserved for those with limited mobility and for valet parking drop-off and pick-up.
  • Monday through Saturday, on-street parking is metered and enforced by the City of Orlando. Sunday on-street parking is free.
  • Please do not park in locations not designated for First United Methodist Church of Orlando.
