Facility Overview

Google Boulder Lot (Propark), also known officially as the Google Boulder Garage, is a contemporary parking facility serving the Google Pearl Street campus and the surrounding Boulder Junction district at 2930 Pearl Street in Boulder, Colorado. Built as an integral component of Google’s state-of-the-art office campus, the facility features an underground parking deck thoughtfully concealed beneath the landscaped grounds, preserving the natural flow of the local greenways while providing hundreds of secure parking spaces. The structure boasts broad interior driving aisles, intuitive lane demarcations, and dedicated bays configured for swift vehicle throughput.

In terms of vehicle suitability, the garage readily accommodates standard sedans, station wagons, crossovers, compact cars, light trucks, and standard full-size passenger SUVs. Propark specifies no restrictive overhead clearance barriers at the primary entry relative to typical passenger vehicles; however, drivers operating lifted off-road trucks, rooftop cargo containers, extra-high commercial sprinter vans, or specialized dual-axle vehicles should exercise standard caution regarding underground ceiling infrastructure, hanging signage, and pipe clearances. Please note that this facility operates on a single-entry basis and does not offer hourly in-and-out privileges.

Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity

Arriving at the garage is simple from any direction in the Boulder Valley. Pearl Street serves as an east-west artery, connecting motorists directly to Foothills Parkway (State Highway 157) to the east, which quickly ties into US-36 (the Denver-Boulder Turnpike) for drivers traveling to and from Broomfield, Westminster, and downtown Denver. North-south travel is equally straightforward via 30th Street and nearby 28th Street (US-36).

Public transit connectivity is exceptional. The lot is positioned adjacent to the Boulder Junction at Depot Square Station, Boulder’s major multimodal transit terminal. From here, Regional Transportation District (RTD) riders can access the Flatiron Flyer (FF1 and FF2 express buses to Denver Union Station), the SkyRide AB1 bus offering direct transit to Denver International Airport (DEN), as well as local HOP, 205, and BOLT bus lines connecting across Boulder County. Paved multi-use pathways, including the nearby Boulder Slough and Goose Creek multi-use trails, provide safe and scenic pedestrian and bicycle connections directly into the campus perimeter.

Visitor & Driver Tips

To ensure a hassle-free parking visit at 2930 Pearl Street, keep the following driver tips in mind:

• No In-and-Out Privileges: Propark’s hourly and daily passes do not allow re-entry once you exit the garage. If you leave the premises, your session will conclude, and a new reservation or fee will be required upon return.
• Reserve Early Online: Utilize ParkChirp or authorized parking apps in advance to secure your spot and lock in discounted digital rates prior to peak business hours.
• Mind Navigation Routes: When approaching via Pearl Street, look out for campus wayfinding signs directing you to subterranean garage entrances. Approach with caution during peak morning (8:00 AM – 9:30 AM) and evening (4:30 PM – 6:00 PM) commuter rushes.
• Vehicle Clearance Check: While the garage easily accommodates typical consumer passenger vehicles and full-size SUVs, vehicles equipped with elevated rooftop ski boxes, oversized bike racks, or heavy commercial ladders should verify garage entrance clearances before descending.
• Note Your Stall Location: Take a photo of your parking column or zone identifier before walking away, making it easy to locate your vehicle upon your return.
