About this Location

Facility Overview

AirGarage | Public Parking at 1212 Wilmington Ave provides a seamless and conveniently positioned parking solution in the very center of Salt Lake City’s vibrant Sugar House neighborhood. Situated just off the active commercial corridors of Highland Drive and 1300 East, this facility offers an accessible and clearly striped parking area operated through AirGarage’s modern digital parking technology. The lot accommodates standard passenger cars, crossovers, and full-size SUVs with ease, while drivers of standard pickup trucks can navigate the open layout comfortably. Because of its open configuration, standard overhead vertical clearance restrictions are minimal compared to tight multi-level underground decks, making it a reliable option for vehicles with roof racks and recreational equipment.

Remember that AirGarage operates on digital license plate verification. Always initiate and pay for your parking session immediately after parking your vehicle to avoid automatic violations or ticketing.
