About this Location

Facility Overview

The Palisades Garage is a multi-level covered parking structure situated at 4818 Del Ray Avenue in the vibrant Woodmont Triangle district of Bethesda, Maryland. Operating within the residential and commercial enclave near The Palisades of Bethesda and Triangle Towers, the facility provides secure, weather-protected off-street parking in one of Montgomery County\'s busiest commercial hubs. The garage features well-marked stalls, smooth interior circulation ramps, and clearly designated drive lanes. It comfortably accommodates standard passenger sedans, compact vehicles, station wagons, and standard mid-size crossovers and SUVs. Due to multi-level clearance restrictions typical of urban residential decks (generally around 6 feet 6 inches to 6 feet 8 inches), high-roof cargo vans, oversized pickup trucks, and vehicles with rooftop accessories or ski racks should exercise caution and verify posted overhead clearance signs at the entrance threshold.

Evenings from Thursday through Saturday are peak dining hours in Woodmont Triangle, making early arrival advisable if you are attending a dinner reservation or scheduled theater curtain time.
