HCC Houston Coleman College Parking spots


Hi, anyone know any other parking spots other than the one across the street?

I don't wanna pay 15+ bucks everyday once I start attending there. I know there is a month to month payment but it's still costly. Is there a place that's pretty close to campus but cheaper park or free parking spot? If anyone can help, please reply.

In close proximity, there is no cheaper parking. I work across the street from the Coleman campus at MD Anderson and pay $120 a month to park in a garage. If you want to be close to campus, it will be better to pay the monthly fee because TMC parking is $10 per day elsewhere and you would be saving in the long run. Another option is parking downtown at one of the cheaper parking lots and riding the rail to TMC/HCC. I don't know if it's still down there but there was parking at the Museum garage for $3 per day. I haven't been to that garage in over two years so I don't know if it's still that cheap. Another one, you can park behind Sams off of 610 for free and ride the rail to HCC. If you choose this option, the spots here fill up quick so be aware of that. HTH.

I just thought of something else. Maybe you can try calling the TMC Parking Office and see if they have any student rates. There is a garage at the Bank of American building and I think parking there was between $50-$75 a month, still costly but close to HCC. Or maybe they have other cheaper options.

thanks for the reply Tee. Wow, I didn't know parking at the coleman campus cost that much. Are you sure it is $120 dollars a month if you sign up for the month to month contract? I heard its like 60 bucks. If not, wow that's still pretty expensive.

It's $120 a month in our garage. It's the MD Anderson Pressler garage. Across the street from HCC is about the $60 a month price, that sounds about right. When I was working at Memorial Hermann they payed for us to park there (we called it the Blue lot) and it was $30 a month then... that was six years ago though You will save money with the month to month contract.. with the in/out if need be, the monthly cost vs. daily cost, and the close proximity to school. It'll work out better, in my opinion in the long run. Good luck

I sometimes do the park & ride option... a full-time student can get 1/2 off any metro services. You just have to go to the downtown metro office and request a student metro q card. If i do decide to drive in, I park behind the sams off of fannin and 610. That is the cheapest thing to do as of now... IT IS SO EXPENSIVE TO PARK in the TMC!!!
