Facility Overview
The parking garage at 2445 M St NW is a secure, professionally managed underground parking facility operated by LAZ Parking. Positioned in the prestigious West End neighborhood of Northwest Washington, D.C., directly bordering historic Georgetown, this garage serves both the high-profile commercial tenants of 2445 M Street and visitors exploring the surrounding district. The facility provides subterranean, weather-protected parking bays with well-maintained lighting, wide drive aisles, and clearly demarcated stall lines.
Because this is a multi-level subterranean garage, clearance limits are typically set around 6 feet 4 inches, making it ideal for compacts, sedans, crossovers, and standard passenger SUVs. Drivers of lifted pickup trucks, commercial transit vans, rooftop cargo boxes, and oversized vehicles should check height restrictions prior to entering and consider surface lots nearby if vehicle height exceeds posted limits.

Visitor & Driver Tips
Traffic along M Street NW and Pennsylvania Avenue NW can build significantly during weekday morning and evening rush hours. If you are visiting for dinner or a weekend stroll through Georgetown, arriving slightly early ensures swift entry before evening rush peaks.
