Facility Overview
Situated in the heart of Denver\'s civic and cultural nexus at 101 W Colfax Avenue, this LAZ Parking facility serves as an essential parking destination for visitors to Downtown Denver, Civic Center, and the Golden Triangle Creative District. Operating adjacent to the Wellington E. Webb Municipal Office Building and directly opposite Denver City and County Building, this secure parking facility provides covered, well-maintained multi-level parking stalls tailored to urban drivers. The facility comfortably accommodates standard passenger sedans, crossovers, compact vehicles, and mid-sized SUVs. Due to overhead garage clearances typically posted at 6 feet 8 inches, drivers of lifted 4x4 trucks, full-size commercial cargo vans, or vehicles equipped with high roof racks should confirm clearance postings at the entrance before proceeding inside.
