Facility Overview

The Broadway Parking Garage (operating as Parking NW Lot L77, historically affiliated with City Center Parking) is a multi-level structured parking facility situated at 632 SW Pine Street in the northern core of Downtown Portland, Oregon. Positioned right at the intersection of SW Broadway and SW Pine Street, this approximately 400-stall facility serves as a vital transition point between Portland's bustling Central Business District, the historic Skidmore/Old Town district, and the Pearl District. The parking operation is thoughtfully split across levels: transient, hourly, and daily public parking is strictly designated on the ground level for fast in-and-out access, while the upper and subterranean decks are reserved for dedicated monthly parking account holders.

With an overhead clearance height restriction posted at 7 feet 0 inches (84 inches), the garage comfortably accommodates standard passenger sedans, compact crossovers, minivans, and stock full-size SUVs and light pickup trucks. However, full-size lifted trucks, high-roof commercial cargo vans (such as Ford Transits or Mercedes Sprinters), and vehicles carrying oversized rooftop equipment or bicycle racks should verify clearance before passing through the entryway sensors, as vertical limits strictly apply once inside.

Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity

Drivers approach the facility heading eastbound along SW Pine Street between SW Broadway and SW 6th Avenue, where prominent Parking NW entrance signage and overhead clearance bars clearly mark the entryway. Ground-floor transient lanes allow quick navigation directly into marked public stalls without navigating winding ramps, while automated gates grant authorized keycard access to the reserved monthly decks.

The garage provides exceptional connectivity to regional transportation arteries. Motorists exiting the garage can quickly transition east onto the Burnside Bridge or Morrison Bridge for immediate connections to Interstate 5 (I-5) and Interstate 84 (I-84), or navigate west toward Interstate 405 (I-405) for smooth access to Hwy 26 and the Sunset Corridor. For public transit users, the garage is directly adjacent to the TriMet Portland Transit Mall along 5th and 6th Avenues, offering immediate boarding for the MAX Light Rail Green and Yellow lines, while the MAX Blue and Red lines run just three blocks south on Yamhill and Morrison.

Visitor & Driver Tips

Transient public parkers must remember that hourly and daily parking is strictly confined to the ground level; parking on upper or subterranean decks is reserved exclusively for permitted monthly parkers, and unauthorized vehicles are subject to ticketing or towing. SW Pine Street is a one-way street, so plan your approach from SW Broadway or 9th Avenue for a smooth right turn into the garage lane. During evening concerts at the Roseland Theater or downtown weekend festivals, ground-floor transient stalls can fill up quickly, making early arrival or reserving parking ahead of time via Parking NW or ParkChirp highly advisable. Always remember to take note of your stall number or input your license plate accurately at the central pay terminal before walking out.
