About this Location

Facility Overview

Situated in the heart of Washington, D.C.\'s vibrant Dupont Circle and Golden Triangle commercial corridors, the Colonial Parking garage at 1330 19th St NW offers secure, weather-protected subterranean parking. Serving both the multi-tenant commercial office building above and the surrounding urban district, this underground multi-level parking deck provides an organized, professional parking environment. The garage is well-suited for standard passenger vehicles, compact cars, cross-overs, and standard mid-size SUVs. Due to typical subterranean design standards in the District, there is a low-clearance ceiling (typically posted around 6\'2\" to 6\'4\"), meaning lifted pickup trucks, high-roof conversion vans, and vehicles equipped with roof racks or cargo carriers should verify posted height restrictions before descending the ramp.

Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity

The entrance to the garage is located along 19th Street NW between N Street NW and Dupont Circle / Sunderland Place NW.

Visitor & Driver Tips

Because 19th Street NW operates one-way heading south, plan your route in advance, especially during the morning and afternoon rush hours when K Street and Dupont Circle experience heavy traffic volume. If you are arriving for business meetings, consider booking your space ahead of time via Colonial Parking or partner mobile parking apps to secure early bird rates or guarantee a stall. Always tuck side mirrors and remove tall vehicle antennas before entering the garage ramp, and keep your parking ticket or digital barcode accessible upon your return to expedite processing at the exit gate.
