About this Location

Facility Overview

The Jefferson Building Garage, operated by Atlantic Parking and located at 1225 19th St NW, provides convenient and secure subterranean parking in the heart of Washington, DC\'s vibrant Dupont Circle and Golden Triangle business districts. Situated beneath a prominent commercial office building, this underground covered parking structure features well-lit bays, clear directional signage, and both self-park and valet-assist operations during peak hours. The garage is tailored primarily for standard passenger sedans, crossovers, and compact-to-midsize SUVs. Due to underground clearance restrictions typical of central DC commercial facilities (typically around 6\'0\" to 6\'4\"), oversized pickup trucks, lifted utility vehicles, and high-roof conversion vans may encounter height limitations and should exercise caution at the entry portal.

Visitor & Driver Tips

Plan your arrival from the north or via 19th Street NW, bearing in mind that 19th Street flows strictly southbound. Morning rush hour (8:00 AM to 9:30 AM) and late afternoon departures (4:30 PM to 6:00 PM) experience moderate congestion along M and K Streets, so budget a few extra minutes for entering and leaving the facility. Reserving your space in advance via parking reservation apps can guarantee access and lock in competitive daily or early-bird rates. Make sure to check your vehicle\'s roof clearance before descending down the ramp, and keep your parking ticket or digital barcode accessible upon return.
