About this Location

Facility Overview

The La Cosecha Parking Garage is a modern, covered subterranean parking facility nestled directly beneath La Cosecha, the celebrated contemporary Latin American culinary and cultural marketplace in Washington, D.C.’s vibrant Union Market District (ZIP code 20002). Situated just off 4th Street NE and Neal Place NE, this clean, well-lit multi-level underground structure offers secure, weather-protected parking right in the core of one of the District\'s most dynamic neighborhoods. The facility comfortably accommodates standard passenger sedans, compact crossovers, minivans, and full-size SUVs, featuring standard parking bay widths and dedicated accessible stalls. Because it is an enclosed subterranean garage, it has a vertical vehicle height clearance (typically posted at 6 feet 8 inches), making it unsuitable for oversized commercial vehicles, high-roof cargo vans, or vehicles equipped with high rooftop cargo boxes or bike racks.

Visitor & Driver Tips

Weekend brunch hours, Friday evenings, and sunny afternoons often draw significant crowds to the Union Market District. To ensure smooth access, plan to arrive before peak lunch or dinner rushes, or consider reserving your space ahead of time via major parking apps if attending a ticketed event. When entering, keep your headlights on and observe internal one-way lane markings carefully, as pedestrian foot traffic around elevator vestibules can be brisk. Always verify your vehicle\'s height clearance before driving down the access ramp, particularly if driving a tall SUV or truck with aftermarket roof attachments.
