Facility Overview
The Civic Center Garage, located at 450 N Rexford Drive, is a premier, multi-level municipal parking structure serving the heart of Beverly Hills. Situated directly adjacent to the Beverly Hills Public Library, Beverly Hills City Hall, and the historic Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts (The Wallis), this facility offers a clean, secure, and highly convenient parking solution in a district known for its luxury and high traffic. The garage features a standard multi-level concrete design. Drivers should be aware of the vertical clearance limit of 6'10", which accommodates most standard passenger vehicles, SUVs, and mid-size trucks, though high-roof vans or vehicles with oversized roof racks should exercise caution.

This garage is strategically located for visitors looking to explore the best of Beverly Hills. Its immediate proximity to the Civic Center makes it the ideal starting point for government business, library visits, or attending performances at The Wallis. The world-famous Rodeo Drive luxury shopping district and the vibrant dining hubs along North Beverly Drive and Canon Drive are within a short, pleasant walking distance (typically 5 to 10 minutes). Its location is perfect for tourists, shoppers, and professionals who want central access without the stress of circling the block for street parking.
Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity
