Park Rite is now using what3words to help you find our Detroit locations more easily.  

For businesses similar to ours, being found easily by customers is vitally important, but for some sites, street addresses aren’t always reliable. In some instances, an address points to the middle of a large parking lot/garage or adjacent building, which isn’t very helpful. So, moving forward we are going to guide you to a specific entrance. That’s why we’re using what3words. 3 common words will now identify a specific parking lot/garage driveway entrance, making your experience with Park Rite even easier and more enjoyable.  

What is what3words? 

what3words is a simple and fun way to identify precise locations. Every 10-foot square (in the world!) has been given a unique combination of 3 words. For example, you can find the entrance to our 1468 Randolph Street location by using [///train.awake.hope] in the free what3words app or using Google Maps from their website.

You won’t find anything like this in the Midwest, let alone the entire United States. That’s right, we’re the first parking operations company in the US to adopt this technology. And there’s nothing else like it.
