Facility Overview
The 714 W Olympic Blvd Garage is a strategically positioned parking facility located in the heart of the vibrant South Park district of Downtown Los Angeles. Situated within a historic building landscape, this facility provides essential off-street parking options for visitors navigating the bustling urban core. The garage is designed to accommodate standard passenger vehicles, SUVs, and mid-size trucks.
