Facility Overview
The Westwood Village Parking Structure, located at 1036 Broxton Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90024, is a multi-level municipal parking facility serving the heart of the Westwood Village district. As a dedicated parking structure, it offers a secure, concrete-deck environment that provides better weather protection than open-air surface lots. While it accommodates standard passenger vehicles, SUVs, and most full-size sedans with ease, drivers operating oversized high-roof vans or long-bed pickup trucks should exercise caution regarding vertical clearance constraints typically found in older urban parking structures.
