Facility Overview

The LAZ Parking - Fashion Plaza Garage is a premier covered parking facility located at 265–299 Detroit Street (with direct vehicular access along East 3rd Avenue between Clayton Street and Detroit Street) in the heart of Denver's illustrious Cherry Creek North neighborhood. Designed to serve the Fashion Plaza commercial complex and the surrounding high-end commercial district, this multi-tier covered garage offers secure, climate-sheltered vehicle bays away from Colorado’s unpredictable hail and winter snowstorms. The interior features structured driving aisles, clearly delineated parking bays, and accessible pedestrian lobbies leading straight onto the street-level sidewalks.

In terms of vehicle suitability, the garage comfortably accommodates standard passenger vehicles, compact sedans, crossovers, mid-size SUVs, and standard pickup trucks. As with typical urban covered garages, there is a standard vertical clearance limit (approximately 6 feet 8 inches to 7 feet), meaning high-roof cargo vans, camper vans, vehicles with raised roof racks or rooftop carriers, and commercial box trucks will exceed clearance thresholds and should utilize street-level or open-air parking lots elsewhere in the district.

Interstates 25 and 70 are easily reached via University Boulevard or Colorado Boulevard.

Visitor & Driver Tips

• Mind the Entry Point: Note that while the garage is addressed on Detroit Street, vehicular ramp entry is positioned off East 3rd Avenue between Clayton and Detroit Streets. Keep your eyes open for overhead garage entrance signage.
• Validate When Applicable: Several medical practices, salons, and retail tenants in Fashion Plaza provide partial parking validations; be sure to bring your parking ticket with you and inquire with the business you are visiting.
• Arrive Early for Neighborhood Festivals: During major community festivals like the Cherry Creek Arts Festival or summer concert weekends, parking throughout Cherry Creek North fills rapidly. Arrive earlier in the day or consider using rideshare during peak event periods.
• Take Note of Vehicle Clearance: If your vehicle has a roof box, ladder rack, or tall suspension package, double-check your height at the entrance marker before pulling past the gate arm.
