Facility Overview
Lot 662: Lemoyne & Sunset is a convenient, open-air surface parking facility located in the heart of the historic Echo Park neighborhood in Los Angeles. Situated at 1152 Lemoyne St, this City of Los Angeles Department of Transportation (LADOT) managed lot offers a straightforward, no-frills parking solution for visitors navigating the hilly and vibrant terrain of the area. The lot features a simple, flat-ground layout that is easy to navigate, making it highly accessible for standard passenger cars, full-size SUVs, and pickup trucks. Please note that as an open-air surface lot, there are no vertical clearance restrictions, though drivers of oversized vehicles or high-roof vans should ensure they park within the marked stalls to avoid encroaching on neighboring spaces.
Prime Location & Nearby Attractions
This lot is strategically positioned for those looking to explore the cultural and recreational gems of Echo Park. It serves as an excellent starting point for visitors heading to the iconic Echo Park Lake, renowned for its paddle boats and scenic walking paths. The area is a thriving hub of local retail, trendy dining, and historic stairways, such as the famous Baxter Street Stairs, which offer breathtaking cardio-workouts and panoramic views of the Downtown L.A. skyline and the Hollywood Sign. Furthermore, its proximity to Dodger Stadium makes it a popular choice for baseball fans and event attendees looking for a reliable parking spot slightly removed from the immediate stadium congestion.
Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity
Ingress and egress are straightforward, with access provided via Lemoyne Street. The lot is designed for efficient traffic flow; however, drivers should anticipate potential delays during major events at nearby venues or peak weekend hours at Echo Park Lake. While the lot does not sit directly adjacent to a subway station, it is well-connected to the broader Los Angeles transit network via local bus routes that service Sunset Boulevard. Major freeway access is easily reachable, allowing for a relatively quick transition between the local Echo Park streets and the regional highway system.
