About this Location

Facility Overview

The 3330 Downing St Parking lot is a conveniently positioned open-air surface parking facility situated in Denver’s historic Five Points and Whittier neighborhood corridor, just minutes from the vibrant River North Art District (RiNo). Because it operates as an outdoor ground-level lot without an overhead canopy or multi-level parking deck, the location offers unrestricted vertical clearance. This makes it an ideal choice not only for standard sedans, compact crossovers, and family hatchbacks, but also for full-size pickup trucks, large SUVs, work vans, and high-roof utility vehicles that cannot clear standard downtown parking garage height limits.

Prime Location & Nearby Attractions

Conveniently positioned along North Downing Street near 33rd and 34th Avenues, this parking destination offers direct, walkable access to Denver’s most dynamic cultural, culinary, and entertainment hubs:

Commuters looking to transition to public transportation benefit from the nearby RTD L Line light rail stops along Welton Street (including the 30th & Downing Station), offering direct connections south toward Downtown Denver and the Theatre District/Convention Center.

Visitor & Driver Tips

Drivers visiting during weekend evenings or major summer street festivals in Five Points should plan to arrive slightly earlier than scheduled, as street and lot spaces fill rapidly. Always take note of your vehicle license plate number before leaving your car, as mobile payment systems in this area typically authenticate parking via license plate input. Ensure that all valuables, charging cords, and bags are tucked out of sight in your trunk to maintain peace of mind while enjoying the neighborhood.
