About this Location

Facility Overview

The 1201 Building Garage, managed by Ace Parking, is a modern multi-level parking facility serving the commercial core of Portland\'s bustling Lloyd District. Situated at 1201 NE Lloyd Boulevard, the garage sits directly beneath and adjacent to the prominent Class-A 1201 Lloyd office tower. Designed primarily to serve commercial office tenants, business visitors, and eventgoers, the garage offers well-lit, fully covered parking protected from Pacific Northwest weather. Due to its multi-level subterranean and structured design, it accommodates standard sedans, compact cars, crossovers, and standard-sized SUVs. High-profile vehicles, lifted trucks, cargo vans with roof racks, and commercial box trucks exceed the garage vertical clearance (typically posted at 6\'7\") and should seek nearby open-air surface parking alternatives.

Visitor & Driver Tips

During major exhibitions at the Convention Center or high-profile events at the Moda Center, Lloyd Boulevard experiences elevated vehicular traffic; drivers are advised to arrive 30 to 45 minutes ahead of curtain or tip-off. Always note your garage pillar number or take a photo of your parking level before heading to the elevator lobby. In accordance with Portland citywide parking best practices, remember to roll up all windows, lock vehicle doors, and keep all personal valuables completely out of sight.
