Northgate Enterainment District in College Station, TX

According to www.cstx.org the parking rates for the City Run Northgate Entertainment District is as follows.

HOURLY AND EVENT PARKING RATES


Garage Hourly Rates*
3 a.m. - 8 p.m. $1 /hr
8 p.m. - 3 a.m. $2 /hr
Lost Ticket Fee $10
Special Event / Home Game (7 a.m. - 12 a.m.) $10
Promenade Lot Rates*
Thursday, Friday, Saturday (8 p.m. - 3 a.m.) $2 /hr
Special Event / Home Game $2 /hr
All Other Times $0.75 /hr

There are a couple of other parking lots that are farther away that charge different rates.  (I will add an update of these prices asap)

These prices or not really that bad but as you know this is TEXAS.   If it is not HOT then it is COLD or not very often but recently quite a bit it RAINS.  

If you call a taxi then we can drop you off closer to the door of the MANY Great Bars and Clubs at Northgate.  AND you don't have to worry about getting a DWI for having one or two drinks while you are enjoying you night out.
