About this Location

Facility Overview

Situated in the heart of Washington, DC\'s vibrant Dupont Circle and Golden Triangle commercial districts, the Colonial Parking garage at 1300 19th St NW offers dependable, covered, multi-level underground parking. Serving a prominent commercial office building at the intersection of 19th Street NW and N Street NW, this garage features a clean, well-lit, and sheltered environment that protects vehicles from seasonal DC elements. The garage accommodates standard passenger sedans, crossovers, and compact-to-midsize SUVs. However, due to standard subterranean clearance limits typical of downtown office structures (approximately 6 feet 2 inches), drivers of lifted trucks, full-size extended-wheelbase vehicles, and commercial cargo vans should check posted ceiling heights or seek outdoor alternatives.

Visitor & Driver Tips

Because 19th Street NW is a one-way street heading south, motorists should plan their approach from northbound Connecticut Avenue or westbound N Street NW. Commuter traffic is heaviest between 8:00 AM and 9:30 AM and during the evening rush from 4:30 PM to 6:00 PM; planning arrival outside these peak windows guarantees swift entry. If you plan to attend an evening dinner or special gallery event nearby, consider reserving a spot online ahead of time via apps like SpotHero to lock in flat evening or early-bird rates. Always check overhead signage at the entrance ramp to ensure vehicle height compliance before descending.
