About this Location

Facility Overview

The parking garage at 1701 Platte St offers secure, premium parking situated in Denver’s vibrant Platte Street corridor, directly positioned between Lower Highland (LoHi) and Lower Downtown (LoDo). Serving both commercial tenants and neighborhood visitors, this modern, multi-level covered parking garage provides a safe, weather-protected environment for vehicles. With clearly delineated lanes, generous space dimensions, and intuitive directional wayfinding, standard passenger cars, compact vehicles, mid-size crossovers, and full-size SUVs can navigate and park comfortably. Prospective drivers of lifted trucks, oversized camper vans, and commercial high-roof utility vehicles should remain mindful of the garage height clearance restriction (typically posted at 7\'0\"), making alternative outdoor staging necessary for over-height transit.

Prime Location & Nearby Attractions

Located right alongside the South Platte River and the iconic Highland pedestrian bridge, 1701 Platte Street provides an unparalleled home base for shopping, dining, and event navigation across multiple key Denver districts. Key destinations in the immediate area include:

  • REI Denver Flagship Store: Situated less than a 3-minute stroll down Platte Street, housed in the historic Denver Tramway building.
  • Highland Bridge & LoHi: Steps away across the pedestrian bridge, giving fast access to popular dining hotspots like Linger, Little Man Ice Cream, and El Five within an 8- to 12-minute walk.
  • Platte Street Dining & Breweries: Direct access to Denver Beer Co., Cervecería Colorado, Just BE Kitchen, and Blue Sparrow Coffee.
  • Confluence Park: Just a 4-minute walk away, perfect for outdoor enthusiasts launching kayaks or accessing the South Platte River Trail and Cherry Creek Trail.
  • Union Station & LoDo: Accessible via a scenic 10- to 15-minute walk across the Millennium Bridge and through Commons Park.
  • Coors Field & Ball Arena: Both premier sports destinations are roughly a 15- to 20-minute walk or brief 5-minute rideshare away.

Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity

The entrance to the garage is positioned directly off Platte Street, which connects efficiently to 15th Street and 20th Street. For regional commuters, the facility offers fast vehicular egress to Interstate 25 via the 20th Street or 23rd Avenue on-ramps, allowing drivers to bypass the most congested segments of central downtown. Public transit options are equally robust: Denver Union Station is located within a 12-minute pedestrian radius, connecting visitors to the RTD A-Line airport train, B, G, and N commuter rail lines, as well as the RTD Light Rail network (C, E, and W lines) and regional bus concourse. Nearby bike-share and scooter racks offer effortless first-and-last-mile mobility.

Ideal For

  • LoHi & Platte St Diners: Evening visitors and weekend brunch patrons avoiding tight and heavily restricted neighborhood street parking.
  • Confluence Park Visitors: Cyclists, runners, and river paddlers looking for reliable staging near trailheads.

Visitor & Driver Tips

Because Platte Street is a bustling corridor with high pedestrian, runner, and cyclist activity around the Highland Bridge and trails, drivers should exercise extra caution when pulling into and out of the garage driveway. Weekend evenings and sunny summer afternoons can see high turnover and brisk demand; arriving slightly before peak dinner hours ensures a seamless parking experience. Remember to take a quick photo of your parking level and stall number, and confirm whether your mobile session requires entry of your license plate before walking out to explore the neighborhood.
