About this Location

Facility Overview

The Colonial Parking garage at 2200 M St NW offers covered, subterranean parking in the heart of Washington, D.C.’s vibrant West End neighborhood. Located at the prominent intersection of 22nd Street NW and M Street NW, this well-maintained multi-level commercial garage provides convenient parking for daily commuters, business professionals, and visitors heading to nearby luxury hotels and top-rated restaurants. The facility is fully sheltered, safeguarding vehicles against seasonal weather conditions. Drivers operating sedans, compact crossovers, and mid-sized SUVs will find comfortable navigation and standard parking bays throughout the facility. As with most downtown D.C. underground garages, low overhead vertical clearances (typically around 6\'2\") mean high-roof passenger vans, lifted pickup trucks, and vehicles with rooftop cargo carriers should seek open-air surface lots or check height restrictions carefully upon entry.
