TOWSON, Md. — Baltimore County wants you to come to Towson, so the revenue authority announced a new $1 flat-rate evening parking program at three garages.
The new rate applies to all vehicles entering participating garages after 5 p.m. and exiting before 4 a.m. the following morning. The $1 flat fee is now available at the following locations:
- Library Parking Facility, located at 115 E. Towsontown Blvd.
- Baltimore Avenue Parking Facility, located at 110 W. Susquehanna Ave.
- Tolbert Parking Facility, located at 108 Ware Ave.
"I think that will make it a lot easier," said Kendall Pierrot, who recently moved to Towson. "Especially with the economy right now, I think $1 parking is an easy way to get young people around here too."

The initiative was developed through collaboration between the Baltimore County Revenue Authority, the Baltimore County Department of Economic and Workforce Development, and the Towson Chamber of Commerce.
"The chamber did a survey over the last 3 months to ask the community how they feel about Twoson. and one of their biggest issues was parking," said Nancy Hafford, Executive Director of the chamber. "I cannot believe how much positive response I got from this, so it's wonderful."
This news comes as Stoney River Steakhouse and Grill announced earlier this week that it is closing its Towson Town Center location.
The steakhouse is just the latest closure at the Town Center, as the Apple Store announced its closure about two weeks ago.

Multiple businesses in Towson have departed since mid-2025, including surrounding businesses near the Cinemark theater, such as Nando's and the Greene Turtle, which closed following a promotional event that sparked increased enforcement and scrutiny from Baltimore County officials.
Hafford hopes this initiative sparks a business boost.
"It's wonderful that we have 92 places to get something to eat or drink within a 1-mile radius. The more the merrier, we welcome everybody, and we have. afeeling that things are really going to start kicking off," said Hafford
Other businesses that have closed inside the mall include Tommy Bahama, Madewell, Banana Republic, and Wockenfuss Candies.
