Facility Overview
Situated at 1100 Grant Street at the intersection of East 11th Avenue and Grant Street, 11th & Grant Parking serves as an accessible parking destination in the heart of Denver's historic Capitol Hill neighborhood. Located adjacent to the Latitude 40 and Strada residential communities, this facility provides self-parking options designed to handle both transient urban traffic and long-term neighborhood parking demand.

Visitor & Driver Tips
Because Grant Street is a one-way street heading north, approach the facility by navigating east on 11th Avenue or coming up northbound on Grant Street itself. During legislative sessions at the Capitol or major headliner events at Colfax venues, street parking in Capitol Hill fills up almost instantaneously; securing a reservation via mobile platforms in advance eliminates the hassle of circling neighborhood blocks. If staying for extended periods or visiting overnight, ensure your vehicle is registered correctly through the mobile checkout portal or payment system to avoid citations or vehicle immobilizations.
