Lower Lonsdale Chiropractor Clinic Parking Recommendations

We all know that parking in Lower Lonsdale has become more and more challenging over time.

While I would love for all of my patients to be able to utilize active mobility to visit the clinic (motion is lotion!), this is not always practical.

With this in mind, when visiting the Lower Lonsdale chiropractic clinic, here are some recommendations and advice regarding parking.

Do not park under or behind the clinic building (224 W Esplanade - Harbour Quay). This is all reserved parking.

Pay parking under the Time Marketplace building - Shopper's Drug Mart/Fresh Street Market - is typically abundant on the lower level (P2) and is a short walk from the clinic. Access is driving westbound on Esplanade between Lonsdale Avenue and Chesterfield. Please note that both Fresh Street Market and Shopper's Drug Mart validate up to 1 hour of parking with a minimum $10 purchase.

Access to Time Market parkade from Esplanade

The closest paid parking is under Sailor Hagar's Brew Pub (access off Semisch Ave between W Esplanade and W 1st Street). A warning that this parkade has some tight spots to navigate and the pay machine is terribly slow.

A street view of the parking access

There is ample pay parking at the gravel parking lot at Mosquito Creek Marina, especially in the afternoon and evenings when many of the other parking lots in the area are busier. Park in the corner closest to the BCIT Marine Campus and railroad tracks for a short walk to the clinic. Please note that this parking lot is sometimes closed as it gets rented for the day/week by film crews.

Of course, Lower Lonsdale is a transit corridor so there is always plenty of public transport traveling through the area!

See you soon and don't drive angry.
