Facility Overview

11 North Washington Public Parking (also identified as USP Location #400) is a covered, multi-level parking garage positioned directly along North Washington Street in downtown Rockville, Maryland. Serving as an essential parking anchor for the city center, the garage provides sheltered, organized, and well-lit parking stalls across multiple tiers. Standard passenger cars, crossovers, sedans, and standard-sized SUVs can easily navigate the entrance, driving lanes, and turning radii. Drivers operating larger vehicles such as full-size pickup trucks, commercial transport vans, or vehicles equipped with roof cargo boxes should take note of the facility\'s posted maximum vehicle clearance of 6 feet 8 inches (2.03 meters). Extended-height conversion vans, dual-rear-wheel trucks, and oversized commercial vehicles exceeding this vertical threshold will not clear the entry barrier and should seek open-air surface lots in the vicinity.
