Facility Overview
The 4200 Wisconsin Avenue Garage, managed by Atlantic Parking, is a premier covered parking facility located in the heart of the Tenleytown neighborhood of Washington, D.C. This multi-level garage offers a secure, protected parking environment, shielding vehicles from the elements—a significant advantage in the D.C. climate. The facility is well-suited for standard passenger cars, sedans, and crossover SUVs. Drivers of full-size pickup trucks or high-roof commercial vans should exercise caution, as the facility features standard garage overhead clearance typical of urban structures; always verify clearance heights upon entry if your vehicle is equipped with roof racks or cargo carriers.
Prime Location & Nearby Attractions
Situated directly on the bustling Wisconsin Avenue corridor, this garage serves as a strategic hub for both business and leisure. It is ideally positioned for visitors to the American University campus, which is just a short drive or quick bus ride away. The garage is also steps away from the Tenleytown-AU Metro station area, providing immediate access to local retail, banking, and professional offices. Popular nearby amenities include a variety of neighborhood dining options, grocery stores, and local boutiques, making this a central point for both residents and visitors exploring Northwest D.C.
Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity
Access to the garage is seamless via Wisconsin Avenue NW, a major arterial road that connects commuters from the Maryland suburbs directly into the District. Traffic flow is generally well-managed in this corridor, though peak rush hour times can increase transit duration. For those utilizing public transportation, the facility is highly convenient; it is located within a 5-minute walk of the Tenleytown-AU Metrorail Station (Red Line), allowing drivers to park their vehicles securely and continue their commute into downtown D.C. or surrounding areas via subway.
