Facility Overview
The 222 S Main Parking Garage, operated by Park ABM, is a premier covered multi-level parking structure serving the landmark 222 South Main office tower in the heart of Downtown Salt Lake City, Utah. Situated along one of the city\'s most vibrant commercial corridors between 200 South and 300 South, this modern facility provides clean, well-lit, and weather-protected parking throughout the year. The multi-story deck accommodates standard passenger sedans, crossovers, and standard-profile SUVs and pickup trucks with ease. Drivers of oversized vehicles, lifted 4x4 trucks, roof-box attachments, and commercial high-roof cargo vans should observe posted overhead height clearance restrictions (standard garage clearance is approximately 7 feet) before entering.

Visitor & Driver Tips
On evenings when high-profile Broadway productions or headline concerts are booked at the Eccles Theater, downtown traffic peaks quickly between 6:30 PM and 7:30 PM; planning to arrive at least 30 to 45 minutes prior to showtime ensures easy entry and stall selection. Always retain your physical parking ticket or utilize digital mobile validation when applicable to avoid lost ticket fees. If you drive a truck equipped with aftermarket roof racks or ski boxes, double-check your total height at the entrance threshold before proceeding up the ramps.
