Facility Overview
The 2000 N 14th Street Garage (also known as the Courthouse Place Garage, managed by Atlantic Parking / Atlantic Services Group) is a dedicated 3-level covered parking structure serving the 9-story commercial office building at 2000 14th Street North in Arlington, Virginia. Situated in the vibrant Radnor-Fort Myer Heights and Courthouse business district, this facility offers dependable, sheltered off-street parking. The physical entrance to the parking deck is located along 1320 N Taft Street, on the west (right-hand) side just north of 14th Street North.
The garage features a posted vertical height clearance of 7 feet 0 inches (7'0"), which accommodates standard sedans, crossovers, mid-size pickup trucks, and standard SUVs. However, oversized commercial vans, 12-passenger vans, high-roof conversion vans, and vehicles equipped with elevated rooftop ski or luggage racks should not enter due to ceiling clearance constraints and overhead infrastructure. The garage operates primarily as a weekday commuter and visitor garage without in-and-out privileges for single-entry tickets.
