New Public Parking Lot Open in Downtown Leesburg

LEESBURG, VA – The Town of Leesburg’s new Church Street parking lot, located at the corner of Church and Loudoun streets, is now open the public, according to a Town of Leesburg announcement.

The Church Street parking lot has 44 public spaces, including two handicapped accessible spaces. Parking rates are the same as the on-street metered spaces, $1.50 per hour, but there is no time limit. Rates apply Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Parking is free on weekends, holidays and after 5:00 p.m. on weekdays. Patrons can pay using the lot’s pay station using cash or credit cards, or they can pay with the ParkMobile app on their smartphones. The ParkMobile app charges a service fee; there is no service fee when using the pay station.

The Town has leased the Church Street parking lot from Courthouse Square LLC. Previously, the owners leased the lot to Loudoun County for employee parking. Some parking spaces are still reserved for county motor pool vehicles, but the majority of the spaces are now available to the public.

In conjunction with opening the new parking lot, the Town added a pedestrian crosswalk at the intersection of Church and Loudoun streets.
