About this Location

Facility Overview

Moxy Boulder Parking (Propark) provides a modern, dependable, and professionally managed parking option situated at 1253 Pleasant Street in Boulder, Colorado. Located in the heart of Boulder's historic and lively University Hill district (commonly known as “The Hill”), this facility serves guests of the trendy Moxy Boulder hotel as well as visitors exploring the adjacent University of Colorado Boulder campus and vibrant commercial corridors. Managed by Propark Mobility, one of the nation's leading parking management providers, the facility is operated with seamless valet and organized lot parking operations. Because the staging and parking footprint offers an open-air surface format, it features no restrictive vertical height clearances, making it exceptionally accommodating for a wide variety of vehicle types—from compact sedans and crossover SUVs to full-size pickup trucks, cargo vans, and ski-rack-equipped mountain vehicles that frequently struggle to clear low-ceiling subterranean garages.

Prime Location & Nearby Attractions

Nestled right at the corner of campus life and urban culture, Moxy Boulder Parking puts you mere steps from Boulder's most popular academic, cultural, and entertainment hubs:

University of Colorado Boulder (CU Boulder): Directly adjacent to campus, sitting opposite the historic Koenig Alumni Center and a short 4-minute walk to Macky Auditorium Concert Hall, Old Main, and the University Memorial Center (UMC).
Folsom Field: Home of Colorado Buffaloes football, located approximately 0.7 miles away (a comfortable 12 to 15-minute scenic campus walk), making it a prime game-day parking destination.
The Fox Theatre: Situated only 0.1 miles away on 13th Street (less than a 2-minute stroll), making this the ultimate parking spot for concertgoers attending shows at this iconic live music venue.
The Hill Commercial District: Step straight into iconic Boulder dining and nightlife, including landmark institutions like The Sink, Illegal Pete's, and Half Fast Subs, alongside on-site dining favorites such as Mister Oso and Aviano Coffee.
Downtown Boulder & Pearl Street Mall: Located approximately 0.8 miles north (a 15-minute downhill walk or 4-minute rideshare), providing direct pedestrian access to Boulder's world-famous brick-paved shopping and dining destination.
Chautauqua Park & Flatirons Trailheads: Positioned just over 1 mile south (a 5-minute drive), offering instant trail access for hikers, trail runners, and outdoor sightseers visiting Boulder's signature sandstone monoliths.

Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity

Accessing the parking facility is straightforward and convenient. Ingress and egress are situated along Pleasant Street, accessible directly from Broadway (Colorado State Highway 93) or via 13th Street. Because Broadway serves as Boulder's primary north-south arterial spine, drivers can effortlessly connect southward to US-36 (Denver Boulder Turnpike) for direct regional travel toward Denver and Denver International Airport (DEN), or northward toward US-36 North to Rocky Mountain National Park. When large campus events or sold-out concerts at The Fox Theatre conclude, exiting back onto Broadway allows drivers to bypass internal neighborhood side streets quickly. For eco-conscious commuters and transit riders, RTD bus stops line Broadway just steps away, serving the popular HOP, SKIP, and Flatiron Flyer (FF1/FF2) express routes that link directly into the Downtown Boulder Station.

Visitor & Driver Tips

To optimize your parking experience at Moxy Boulder, keep the following practical advice in mind:

Reserve in Advance for Big Events: On CU Boulder home football Saturdays, university move-in days, and major national tour dates at The Fox Theatre, parking spaces across University Hill fill up rapidly. Reserving early via digital platforms guarantees your vehicle a dedicated stall.
Check for Dining Validation: If you are stopping by for breakfast at Aviano Coffee or dinner and cocktails at Mister Oso, check with your server regarding valet validation programs before paying posted visitor rates.
Mind University Pedestrian Traffic: Pleasant Street and 13th Street feature heavy student foot, skateboard, and bicycle traffic throughout the academic semester. Approach the property at reduced speed and watch for pedestrians at crosswalks.
Review Overstay Policies: Standard hourly reservations do not include in-and-out privileges unless arranged through specific multi-day hotel valet packages; be sure to confirm exit times to avoid standard overtime fees.
