Erato Garage

[Martha Deen]

Does anyone know the height clearance to enter the parking deck?I have a standard size high top Ford van. I need at least 8ft 6 in. I have called the Port of New Orleans twice, one person said 10 ft clearance, one person said 7 ft clearance. Help I have less than a week before sailing!!!!:confused:

The actual heights are...

8'4" on third level

7'6" on higher levels

There is an off-site area for over-size vehicles .

 

From the Port site..

"Oversized vehicles, RV's and Buses

Oversized vehicles may use the Poydras St. Parking lot which is adjacent to the Julia St. Cruise Terminal No. 2. Utilize the same directions as to Erato/Julia terminals. Go directly to the drop off areas for either the Erato or Julia terminal. After offloading all luggage and passengers, the driver should proceed past the Erato and Julia terminals and turn right into the Poydras St. Parking Lot. There will be a shuttle available to bring you back to Erato St. (You can walk to the Julia Terminal). Parking for oversized vehicles is $28 per day. Please call ahead for space. (504) 525-5476. Ask for Mr. Leonard Smith. Lot is secure, lighted and patrolled."

Yep, it sounds a little steep to me.:rolleyes: Especially if it's an overheight vehicle and not one that would normaly take up two spaces with it's length .
