Facility Overview

The Colonial Parking garage at 1750 K Street NW offers premier, subterranean parking situated at the heart of Washington, D.C.\'s bustling Golden Triangle business district. Serving a Class-A commercial building along the legendary K Street corridor, this secure, multi-level underground facility provides convenient self-parking and attendant-assisted valet options during peak commuting windows. The garage accommodates standard passenger sedans, crossovers, and compact-to-midsize SUVs. However, drivers of lifted 4x4 trucks, full-size extended passenger vans, or vehicles equipped with roof racks or cargo carriers should note the typical urban clearance restriction of approximately 6 feet 2 inches (1.88 m), which makes the facility unsuitable for high-roof commercial sprinters or oversized vehicles.
