Facility Overview

Located on the western edge of Salt Lake City’s downtown core, the 35 S 6th W Parking facility (commonly referred to as the 35 S. 600 W. Lot or 500 West Lot, managed by AirGarage) provides an expansive, accessible open-air surface parking solution. Set directly along South 600 West (historically designated as 6th West) between North Temple and West Dansie Drive, the lot features an unobstructed layout with ground-level parking stalls. Because this facility is an outdoor surface lot without overhead barriers, low-hanging pipes, or garage ceilings, there are virtually no vertical height restrictions. It comfortably accommodates standard sedans, compact crossovers, lifted full-size pickup trucks, commercial work vans, and high-roof sport utility vehicles that often cannot enter traditional subterranean or multi-story parking structures.

Prime Location & Nearby Attractions

This parking area sits at the strategic nexus of downtown Salt Lake City's bustling Depot District and The Gateway entertainment hub. It is one of the closest and most budget-friendly parking alternatives for marquee destinations, sports arenas, and concert halls:

• The Complex (Concert Venue): Just a fast 3-minute stroll (1 block south at 536 W 100 S), making this the top go-to parking lot for live concertgoers and touring performance fans.
• Delta Center: Approximately a 7 to 9-minute walk (0.3 miles east), offering hassle-free parking for Utah Jazz NBA games, NHL hockey matchups, and major stadium arena tours without having to navigate congested venue drop-off lanes.
• The Gateway & The Depot: Less than a 5 to 7-minute walk to premier retail, dining, Megaplex Theatres, the historic Union Pacific Depot, and live music at The Depot.
• Clark Planetarium & Discovery Gateway Children's Museum: Roughly 0.3 miles away, offering an effortless parking choice for family weekend outings.
• Salt Palace Convention Center: Located about 0.6 miles east (approx. 12 to 14-minute walk), providing an economical commuter and conference parking option away from elevated convention deck rates.
• Metro Music Hall & West Temple Nightlife: Within easy walking range (under 10 minutes) for visitors exploring local nightlife, breweries, and indie concerts.

Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity

Ingress and egress to the lot are positioned directly off South 600 West (6th West), granting straightforward access without the bottlenecks commonly found inside multi-tiered garages. Following high-attendance Delta Center games or sold-out Complex gigs, motorists can easily exit southward or northward to bypass city-center gridlock. Transit connectivity is exceptional: the Old GreekTown TRAX Station (Blue Line) is only three blocks away, while Salt Lake Central Station (the primary regional hub for UTA FrontRunner commuter trains, Green Line TRAX, and Amtrak) sits just a short walk south on 600 West. Drivers commuting from outside Salt Lake County benefit from swift connectivity to Interstate 15 and Interstate 80 via the nearby 400 South and 600 South arterial corridors.

Visitor & Driver Tips

• Pre-Book on Event Nights: Due to close proximity to The Complex and Delta Center, stalls can fill rapidly on concert and game days; reserve in advance via AirGarage or SpotHero to secure your stall.
• Verify License Plate Details: Enforcement is actively managed by automated camera patrols and license plate recognition (LPR). Double-check that your entered license plate and state match your vehicle accurately before leaving the lot.
• Dynamic Event Pricing Awareness: Standard hourly rates run at economical base tiers, but rates fluctuate during peak arena shows and multi-day conventions.
• Start and End Sessions Promptly: When utilizing mobile pay-by-phone signage on site, remember to confirm your active session immediately upon parking to prevent ticketing.
