You’re not out of parking. You’re out of information. A neighbor near you is pulling out of a spot you can’t see, and Makeway hands it to you the moment they do.
Makeway is a free app where neighbors share open street parking in real time. The driver leaving a spot taps to make way, and the driver looking for one holds it. It only looks like the block is full. Someone is always leaving a spot just as someone else gives up looking, and the two never meet. Makeway introduces them. Fewer laps around the block, less fuel burned for nothing, and streets that move easier for everyone on them. Makeway is live in Hoboken, New Jersey, and opens in new cities as drivers ask for it.
Street parking made simpler, one neighbor at a time.
Smarter parking for people and cities
See Who’s Leaving
Real-time updates from drivers leaving nearby help you head toward a spot instead of circling for one.
Built for Busy Blocks
We’re starting where parking gets tight fast. Makeway is built for blocks where every open spot matters.
Powered by Drivers
The best parking signal comes from the person about to leave. Makeway helps them pass it to someone nearby.
Circling Adds Up
Gas, tickets, garage fees, and wasted time all come with the search. Makeway helps shrink the cost of circling.
Private by Default
We only use what helps the parking handoff work. Makeway is about sharing a spot, not tracking you.
For the Whole Block
Residents, visitors, and delivery drivers all need the same thing: a faster way to find the curb.
Everything you need to park faster in dense cities, and help your city move better.

“Jersey City parking near downtown is a nightmare. I’ve parked blocks from my apartment more times than I can count, and garages are insane for something that should be simple.”
Lauren M, Jersey City
“In NYC, parking is a daily gamble. You find a legal spot, come back to a ticket for a sign you missed. I budget for tickets like a normal expense now.”
Daniel R, NYC
“Parking in Hoboken is exhausting. I’ll circle 30 minutes after work, then pay for a garage anyway to avoid a ticket. It feels like I’m always paying just to come home.”
