Facility Overview
The 749-757 7th St Garage is a covered parking facility positioned right in the historic heart of Old Town Park City, Utah. Nestled on 7th Street between Park Avenue and Main Street, this compact multi-bay parking structure provides sheltered vehicular parking in an area renowned for dense topography and tight street parking constraints. The garage layout accommodates standard passenger vehicles, compact crossovers, and mid-size SUVs. Drivers operating full-size pickup trucks, extended passenger vans, or vehicles outfitted with high-clearance ski racks and rooftop cargo boxes should exercise caution and verify overhead clearance before entry, as historic Old Town residential and boutique commercial garages typically feature standard vertical clearance limits of approximately 6 feet 8 inches to 7 feet.
Prime Location & Nearby Attractions
This parking location boasts extraordinary walkability to the best of Park City\'s year-round attractions, entertainment, and culinary scene:

Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity
Vehicular access to 7th Street is generally achieved via Park Avenue (Utah State Route 224) or Swede Alley. Old Town streets are narrow, historic, and often feature steep grades; during winter months, all-wheel drive (AWD) or four-wheel drive (4WD) equipped with snow tires is highly advisable. While downtown street traffic can be heavy during peak ski season and festival weekends, the facility offers swift egress back toward Park Avenue for direct connection north to Interstate 80 or south toward Deer Valley Resort via Marsac Avenue (Route 224). Additionally, the Old Town Transit Center is just a short 4-minute walk away, offering free and frequent connections across the entire Park City Transit bus network—including direct routes to Kimball Junction, Canyons Village, and Deer Valley.

Visitor & Driver Tips
Because street parking along Main Street and surrounding residential roads is strictly regulated with resident permits and steep hourly meters, off-street garage space in this immediate corridor is exceptionally valuable. During major winter storms or Sundance festival events, arrive early in the morning to navigate narrow side streets before plows and peak traffic congest Old Town. Always clear accumulated snow and ski equipment from roof mounts prior to pulling into the garage to prevent roof or vehicle damage.
