About this Location

Facility Overview

Parking NW - 2332 NW Irving St (designated within the network as Lot L198) is a centrally positioned, open-air surface parking facility nestled in Portland's vibrant Northwest District, commonly referred to as Nob Hill or the Alphabet District. Designed with an accessible, flow-through orientation, the lot features dual access points with an entry on NW Irving Street directly adjacent to Joya Women's Healthcare and an additional entry and exit along NW Hoyt Street between NW 23rd and NW 24th Avenues. The NW Irving Street entrance is easily recognized by an illuminated circular sign displaying a prominent red 'P' mounted against the adjacent brick exterior, alongside manicured hedge borders. Because this is an uncovered surface lot, it offers unobstructed overhead clearance with zero vertical height limitations. It comfortably accommodates all vehicle classes, from compact cars and luxury sedans to full-size SUVs, extended-bed pickup trucks, camper-topped recreational vehicles, and high-roof delivery or passenger vans.

Prime Location & Nearby Attractions

Situated just half a block off the legendary Northwest 23rd Avenue shopping and dining corridor, this lot places drivers at the immediate doorstep of some of Portland's finest boutiques, bistros, and historic residential avenues. Visitors are within a short 1- to 3-minute stroll of iconic culinary landmarks including Papa Haydn, Jo Bar & Rotisserie, 23Hoyt, Escape from New York Pizza, Bamboo Sushi, and the original Salt & Straw scoop shop. Boutique shoppers can effortlessly reach retailers such as prAna, Lucky Brand, and Sloan Boutique in moments. Beyond neighborhood dining, the lot serves as an exceptional parking base for cultural and sporting outings: Cinema 21 is a 5-minute walk away, while Providence Park—home to MLS Portland Timbers and NWSL Portland Thorns matches—is located roughly 0.8 miles south (a scenic 15- to 18-minute walk or a brief transit ride). Nature enthusiasts heading toward Wallace Park, Couch Park, or the urban forest trailheads of Forest Park also find this location strategic and convenient.

Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity

Navigating to and from 2332 NW Irving St is remarkably straightforward thanks to its dual-street ingress and egress design. Motorists can enter from NW Irving Street and exit onto NW Hoyt Street (or vice versa), which significantly eases vehicle movement and helps avoid traffic bottlenecks when NW 23rd Avenue experiences heavy pedestrian or vehicle traffic. Transit connectivity is exceptional: the Portland Streetcar North-South (NS) Line stops along NW 23rd Avenue at Lovejoy and Northrup streets (just four blocks north), delivering direct connections to the Pearl District, Downtown Portland, and the South Waterfront. TriMet bus lines, including Line 15 (NW 23rd) and Line 20 (Burnside), run nearby, facilitating seamless regional multimodal travel. Regional drivers enjoy quick access to Interstate 405 via nearby arterials like NW Glisan Street and NW Everett Street, connecting directly to Interstate 5, Highway 26, and Highway 30.

Visitor & Driver Tips

Paid parking enforcement is operational 24 hours a day, so always initiate your parking session immediately upon pulling into a stall. Make note of your vehicle's license plate number before walking toward the pay machine or paying through the mobile app, as payment is tied directly to your plate rather than a stall number. Drivers in larger trucks or passenger vans will find turning into the NW Hoyt Street entrance slightly more spacious than the tree-lined NW Irving entry driveway. If you plan to visit on sunny summer weekends, during Portland Marathon weekends, or on Portland Timbers/Thorns game days, spaces can fill early; reserving a stall in advance via ParkChirp is recommended to guarantee your spot before departure.
