Facility Overview
The LA LIVE West Garage, located at 1005 Chick Hearn Ct, Los Angeles, CA 90015, stands as a premier multi-level parking structure strategically positioned to serve the vibrant South Park district. As a dedicated covered garage, it provides a sophisticated, weather-protected environment for vehicles. With a vertical clearance height of 8 feet 2 inches, this facility is exceptionally accommodating for most standard passenger cars, full-size SUVs, and mid-sized pickup trucks. Drivers of larger vehicles will appreciate the generous headroom compared to standard urban garages, though motorists with oversized high-roof commercial vans should verify height compatibility before entry.
Prime Location & Nearby Attractions
Situated in the absolute heart of downtown Los Angeles\' entertainment hub, the West Garage is the primary choice for attendees of world-class venues. Its proximity is unparalleled:
- Crypto.com Arena (formerly Staples Center): Steps away from the main entrance, making it the premier choice for Lakers, Clippers, and Kings games.
- Peacock Theater: Direct, immediate access for award shows and concert attendees.
- Los Angeles Convention Center: A short walk away, ideal for large-scale trade shows and exhibitions.
- The Grammy Museum: Located within the immediate L.A. LIVE campus.
- Figueroa Corridor: Surrounded by upscale dining, nightlife, and retail shopping centers within a 5-minute walk.
Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity
Entry is managed primarily via Chick Hearn Court. Due to its location in a high-density area, traffic flow is heavy during event hours. The facility is well-integrated with local transit, being just minutes away from the Metro A (Blue) and E (Expo) lines at the Pico Station. For those arriving via freeway, the garage offers relatively swift access to both the I-110 and I-10 interstates. Post-event, traffic management personnel are often on-site to facilitate orderly egress, though drivers should anticipate standard Los Angeles exit congestion during peak crowd departures.

Visitor & Driver Tips
To ensure a seamless visit, please note that event-day rates often fluctuate based on the venue\'s schedule. During high-demand events, the garage may implement pre-paid flat-rate pricing. We highly recommend arriving at least 60-90 minutes before the start of major events to avoid long queues at the gates. Always verify your specific destination entrance via GPS, as Chick Hearn Court can be restricted during specific high-profile events. Keep your parking ticket accessible, as you will need it for the automated payment machines before returning to your vehicle.
