Holding true to our roots, Douglas Parking continues to be owned by direct descendants of our founder. Sanford's son, Leland, joined Douglas Parking in 1967 and was subsequently joined by his sons, David and Steven, in 1988 and 1996, respectively. Together, the three owners have overseen the company's successful growth and development.

Since 1930 our organization has been committed to providing the best service possible using the values of inclusivity, honesty, and transparency. The company has been based at 1721 Webster Street since 1938 and, through our partnership with Holland Partner Group, redeveloped this site into our new national HQ as well as a 250 space garage and 210 high end apartments.
We are very proud of this development and expect to call this site home for many years and many more generations of business.
