About this Location

Facility Overview

Situated in the beating heart of Denver\'s historic Lower Downtown (LoDo) neighborhood, the public parking facility at 1760 Wazee Street offers premium, easily accessible parking in one of the city\'s most energetic entertainment and culinary corridors. Operating primarily as an open-air surface parking lot, this facility provides spacious outdoor parking that eliminates the clearance anxiety typically associated with subterranean or multi-level garages. Because there are no low ceiling structures or overhead clearance barriers, the lot accommodates standard passenger sedans, full-size SUVs, extended-cab pickup trucks, and vehicles equipped with roof racks, ski carriers, or cargo boxes with complete ease.

Prime Location & Nearby Attractions

The location at 1760 Wazee Street places drivers just steps away from Denver’s top sports, dining, and cultural attractions:

Coors Field: Home of the Colorado Rockies, located just two blocks away (roughly a 4 to 6-minute walk), making this lot one of the most convenient parking choices on game days.
McGregor Square: Adjacent to the ballpark, featuring a giant LED stadium screen, vibrant food hall, and outdoor plaza gathering space (under a 4-minute walk).
Denver Union Station: Just two blocks southwest along 17th Street (a 3 to 5-minute walk), serving as Denver’s premier historic transit and dining showpiece.
Dairy Block & The Maven Hotel: Located immediately across the street in the 1800 block of Wazee, featuring boutique shopping, micro-distilleries, and the vibrant Denver Milk Market.
Larimer Square & 16th Street Mall: A brief 7 to 10-minute stroll away, connecting visitors to historic boutique retail and urban promenades.
Ball Arena: Approximately a 15-minute walk or quick 5-minute rideshare away for Denver Nuggets and Colorado Avalanche matchups and major arena concerts.

Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity

The parking lot is conveniently accessed directly from Wazee Street between 17th and 18th Streets. Wazee Street operates as a one-way street traveling northeast, allowing for straightforward approaches from 17th Street. Egress onto Wazee Street or surrounding cross streets provides swift dispersal following major events, avoiding much of the bumper-to-bumper congestion centered directly around the stadium gates. For regional travelers, Interstate 25 and Park Avenue West are reachable within five minutes via 20th Street or Speer Boulevard. Public transit connectivity is virtually unmatched, with Denver Union Station merely steps away, granting effortless transfers to the RTD Light Rail, commuter rail lines (including the University of Colorado A Line to Denver International Airport), and regional bus routes.

Visitor & Driver Tips

Due to its premier positioning near Coors Field and McGregor Square, parking demand peaks sharply on game days, concert nights, and sunny weekend afternoons. During major events, flat-rate surge pricing is commonly in effect. Drivers are encouraged to arrive at least 45 to 60 minutes prior to first pitch or event start times to secure a space comfortably. Always pay immediately after parking by entering your license plate accurately into the digital pay machine or mobile app to prevent ticketing or immobilization. Remember that Wazee Street is one-way northeast; plan your route via 17th Street or Blake Street for the smoothest arrival.
