Facility Overview
Located at 5401 Denker Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90062, this facility is associated with the Greater Ebenezer Missionary Baptist Church.

The lot spans approximately 18,900 square feet on a 0.43-acre site, offering a flat, asphalt-paved surface. Given its open-air design, there are no vertical clearance restrictions, making it an excellent choice for production vehicles, high-roof cargo vans, full-size SUVs, and trucks that would otherwise struggle in standard parking garages.

Visitor & Driver Tips
For production managers, it is highly recommended to reach out directly to the church administration for pre-arranged access and scheduling, as this site is not a public commercial garage and is often reserved for private use. Drivers should input the specific Denker Avenue address into GPS navigation to ensure they avoid residential street closures during busy production days. Always account for standard Los Angeles traffic patterns on the I-110, especially during peak morning and evening commute hours.
