About this Location

Facility Overview

Impark Lot #130, located at 911 Silver Spring Avenue in downtown Silver Spring, Maryland, is a conveniently situated open-air surface parking facility. Positioned within the bustling Fenton Village district on the southern edge of central Silver Spring, this lot provides accessible ground-level parking without the confining layout of multi-deck municipal garages. Because it is an unobstructed open-air lot, there are no vertical clearance limits or low ceiling overhangs to navigate, making it exceptionally accommodating for oversized SUVs, commercial vans, full-size pickup trucks, and vehicles equipped with roof cargo boxes or bike racks that cannot enter standard parking garages.
