Facility Overview
Situated in Salt Lake City’s charming Lower Avenues neighborhood at 29 E St, this Diamond Parking facility provides an accessible, open-air surface parking solution on the immediate periphery of downtown Salt Lake City. The lot is cleanly laid out with standard head-in and angled stalls that accommodate everyday passenger vehicles, crossovers, and full-size vehicles. Because the lot is completely open to the sky with no low ceilings or parking garage overhead beams, oversized vehicles such as lifted pickup trucks, high-roof conversion vans, and SUVs equipped with roof boxes or bicycle racks can park safely without vertical clearance concerns.
Prime Location & Nearby Attractions
Located just north of the prestigious East South Temple corridor, the 29 E St lot places drivers within short walking distance of iconic historic architecture, neighborhood dining, and key municipal landmarks. The historic Cathedral of the Madeleine is situated only three blocks west (a 5-minute walk), while the Utah Governor’s Mansion (Kearns Mansion) sits just two blocks east. The sprawling green lawns of Brigham Young Historic Park and City Creek Canyon trailheads are roughly 10 to 12 minutes away on foot. For commuters heading into the central business district, City Creek Center, Temple Square, and the Salt Lake Masonic Temple are between 10 and 15 minutes away, making this lot a quiet, stress-free alternative to congested downtown core garages.
Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity
Ingress and egress are straightforward via E Street, positioned smoothly between East South Temple and 1st Avenue. The surrounding grid system allows easy navigation away from main-drag bottlenecks during morning and evening rush hours. UTA bus routes run directly along South Temple and 2nd Avenue, providing rapid cross-town connections. Commuters needing regional transit can easily connect to the UTA TRAX light rail Blue and Green Lines via nearby downtown stations, while Interstate 15 and Interstate 80 are readily accessible via 400 South or 600 South.

Remember to lock vehicle doors and keep personal belongings out of sight for added peace of mind.
