NEW ROCHELLE, NY (July 23, 2024) — The Marina Parking Deck, adjacent to the City’s Municipal Marina off Echo Avenue, is being demolished and rebuilt. This capital project replaces a deteriorating structure more than a half-century old with a new parking deck, three garages, and a new office and headquarters for the Marina staff serving under New Rochelle’s Harbormaster. The project is expected to be complete by spring 2025.
The Marina Parking deck and lot are heavily used and a favorite amongst Marina visitors, boat owners, and patrons of Patsy’s restaurant, along with the nearby Marina storefront businesses.
To accommodate Marina customers and visitors during the project, the City of New Rochelle has coordinated public street parking accommodations on Pelham Road to include more public spaces, along with additional parking options for both the public and businesses at nearby Hudson Park. The entrance to Patsy’s Restaurant has been relocated to the west side of the building.
