Parking Requirements for Medical Office Buildings

This study was conducted to document the parking requirements for medical office buildings (MOBs). A total of 50 MOBs located throughout the United States were studied to determine their parking requirements. Research was conducted with the following objectives: identify and reference historical MOB peak-hour parking demand ratios; create a database of MOB peak-hour parking demand ratios that employ the number of parking spaces needed per 1,000 gross square feet; identify municipal code requirements for those buildings surveyed; and summarize findings by mean and 85th-percentile values. Based on the findings from this research, providing 4.5 spaces per 1,000 gross square feet of building space should be sufficient to meet MOB needs during peak-hours.
