About this Location

Facility Overview

The Senate Square Garage Entrance, located at 800 2nd St NE in Washington, DC, provides secure subterranean parking within the historic and vibrant Near Northeast / NoMa neighborhood, just steps from Capitol Hill. Serving residents of the Senate Square apartment community as well as visitors to the bustling H Street Corridor and government offices, this covered, multi-level facility offers protection from the elements and high-grade urban convenience. The garage features clearly delineated stalls and standard underground drive aisles designed to accommodate sedans, sports coupes, crossovers, and compact to mid-size SUVs. Drivers of full-size pickup trucks, commercial cargo vans, or vehicles equipped with high-profile roof racks should verify clearance signage at the 2nd Street NE portal, as underground DC garages generally feature vertical clearances of approximately 6\'6\" to 6\'8\".
