About this Location

Facility Overview

Situated in the historic heart of Lower Downtown (LoDo) at 1660 Wynkoop Street, this parking garage—historically operated by Ampco System Parking (now ABM Parking Services)—provides an exceptional, secure parking option directly adjacent to Denver Union Station. Located within the iconic Ice House building block, the facility features a covered multi-level parking structure offering protection from the Colorado elements, whether it is high-altitude summer sunshine or winter snowfall. Due to the multi-level covered structure, clearance is typically around 6 feet 8 inches to 7 feet, making it perfectly suited for standard passenger sedans, crossovers, and compact-to-midsize SUVs. Drivers of oversized vehicles, lifted 4x4 trucks, or high-roof passenger and cargo vans should verify overhead clearance signs at the Wynkoop Street entryway or consider nearby open-air surface lots.

Prime Location & Nearby Attractions

This facility offers one of the most strategic footholds anywhere in downtown Denver. Being positioned directly opposite Denver Union Station places guests within steps of the Great Hall, Crawford Hotel, and an array of acclaimed dining options including Mercantile Dining & Provision, Ultreia, and Stoic & Genuine. Sports and entertainment venues are within comfortable walking distance: Coors Field (home of the Colorado Rockies) is merely a 7-minute walk (0.4 miles) northeast, while Ball Arena (home to the Denver Nuggets and Colorado Avalanche) is an easy 10-minute stroll (0.5 miles) southwest across Cherry Creek. Additionally, the 16th Street Mall pedestrian corridor begins just across the street, offering rapid access to retail shops, corporate offices, and the Denver Performing Arts Complex (DPAC).

Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity

Ingress and egress are situated along Wynkoop Street between 16th and 17th Streets, directly facing the vibrant pedestrian plazas of Union Station. Navigating to the facility is straightforward from Interstate 25 via either the 20th Street or Park Avenue West exits, which feed quickly into LoDo. After major sporting events or weekend evening rushes, exiting onto 16th or 17th Street allows convenient dispersal toward Speer Boulevard or out to I-25. For multimodal transit, this facility is unmatched: Denver Union Station functions as the regional transit hub, providing immediate access to RTD Light Rail (C, E, and W lines), commuter rail (notably the A Line direct to Denver International Airport), and dozens of regional and local bus routes.

Visitor & Driver Tips

Wynkoop Street features considerable pedestrian and bicycle traffic, especially in front of Union Station; drivers should exercise extra caution and yield to foot traffic when turning into or exiting the facility. During Rockies home games and peak weekend evenings, spaces can fill quickly and event-driven flat rates may apply. Reserving a space in advance through mobile parking aggregators is highly recommended to secure the best tariff and guarantee entry. Remember to retain your physical ticket or digital confirmation until you complete your stay.
