Facility Overview
The Franklin Court Parking Garage, located at 1099 14th St NW in the heart of Washington, D.C., is a premier multi-level underground parking facility. It offers a secure and climate-controlled environment ideal for protecting vehicles from the elements. Due to its underground structure, the facility has standard height restrictions; therefore, it is best suited for passenger cars, sedans, and small-to-medium SUVs. High-roof commercial vans or oversized trucks may face clearance challenges and are advised to check specific entry signage before proceeding.
Prime Location & Nearby Attractions
Situated in the bustling Downtown/Logan Circle area, this garage is perfectly positioned for both business professionals and leisure travelers. It provides immediate access to major corporate offices and government buildings. Notable nearby attractions include the Walter E. Washington Convention Center, which is a convenient walk away, and the vibrant dining and retail scenes of 14th Street and K Street. It is also an excellent base for visitors heading to the National Geographic Museum or those attending performances at nearby downtown theaters.
Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity
Accessing the garage is straightforward via 14th Street NW, a major arterial road in the District. Drivers will find the ingress and egress well-marked, though, as with all downtown D.C. locations, traffic can be heavy during morning and evening rush hours. The facility is exceptionally well-connected to public transit, sitting within walking distance of the McPherson Square and Metro Center Metro stations, offering access to the Orange, Blue, Silver, and Red lines. It is also conveniently located near numerous bus stops serviced by WMATA.

Visitor & Driver Tips
We highly recommend pre-booking your space via mobile parking apps to secure the best rates, especially during peak weekdays or local events. If you are attending a large event at the Convention Center, aim to arrive at least 30-45 minutes earlier than your desired time to navigate potential street congestion. Always confirm your vehicle height clearance before entry, and keep your digital pass or QR code ready for quick scanning at the gate.
