About this Location

Facility Overview

The LAZ Parking facility at 2035 Arapahoe Street provides convenient, open-air surface parking strategically positioned at the nexus of Downtown Denver, the Ballpark District, and Upper LoDo. Located on Arapahoe Street between 20th and 21st Streets, this spacious lot offers seamless ground-level parking with clear stall delineation and broad circulation lanes. Because this is an open-sky surface lot without low overhead beams or restrictive parking garage clearance barriers, it accommodates a broad spectrum of vehicle types. Standard sedans, crossover SUVs, lifted four-wheel-drive pickup trucks, and high-roof conversion vans or utility vehicles fitted with roof cargo boxes, bike racks, or ski equipment can enter and park without height clearance concerns.

Prime Location & Nearby Attractions

This central location places drivers steps away from Denver\'s premier sports, dining, and cultural venues:

Coors Field: Home of Major League Baseball\'s Colorado Rockies, situated only three to four blocks away (approx. a 6 to 8-minute walk), making it a prime game-day parking destination.
Ballpark & RiNo Nightlife: Direct walking access to popular restaurants, craft taprooms, and cocktail lounges along Blake, Market, and Larimer Streets, including ViewHouse Ballpark, Jackson\'s, and local breweries.
16th Street Mall: A brief 6 to 9-minute stroll brings visitors to Denver\'s historic pedestrian mall featuring shopping, casual dining, and the free MallRide shuttle.

Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity

The lot offers straightforward ingress and egress directly from Arapahoe Street, a one-way street carrying traffic northeast through downtown. Its positioning near 20th Street provides immediate outbound access toward Broadway, Park Avenue West, and the Interstate 25 corridor, enabling drivers to bypass congested inner-city choke points following sold-out games or peak rush hour. For commuters utilizing public transit, the RTD Light Rail stations at 20th & Welton (L Line) and 18th & California/Stout (D, H, and L Lines) are within a convenient 5 to 7-minute walk, while numerous local bus lines operate along Arapahoe and 18th Streets.

Visitor & Driver Tips

During Colorado Rockies home games, concerts, and major downtown festivals, parking spaces in the Ballpark corridor fill rapidly and dynamic event rates apply. Arriving 45 to 60 minutes prior to scheduled start times is highly recommended to secure a spot. Remember to note your vehicle\'s license plate number before approaching the pay machine or paying via mobile app, as spaces operate on a pay-by-plate digital enforcement system. When approaching via Arapahoe Street, stay in the right lane past 20th Street to ensure a smooth turn into the lot entrance.
