About this Location

Facility Overview

The South Garage at The Gateway is a premier, multi-level covered parking garage situated at 440 W 100 S in the heart of Downtown Salt Lake City\'s vibrant Gateway district. Designed to serve both high-volume entertainment crowds and daily downtown visitors, this modern, subterranean and covered facility offers comprehensive weather protection against Utah\'s harsh winter snows and intense summer heat. The structure features clearly marked wide lanes, bright LED illumination, and multi-tier floor layouts with easy elevator and stairwell access to street-level retail and dining plazas. Vehicle clearance is standard for modern urban parking garages at approximately 7 feet (84 inches), accommodating passenger sedans, crossovers, mid-size and full-size SUVs, and standard light-duty pickup trucks. Oversized commercial vans, dually pickups, and vehicles with rooftop cargo boxes or high-profile overland racks should verify clearance heights at entry portals or seek nearby open-air surface lots.

Prime Location & Nearby Attractions

The South Garage offers one of the most advantageous parking locations in downtown Salt Lake City, sitting directly adjacent to premier entertainment and sports destinations:

Delta Center: Home of the NBA\'s Utah Jazz and the Utah Hockey Club, located just across the street (a brief 2 to 4-minute walk), making this garage one of the most popular and convenient event parking spots in the city.
The Gateway District: Direct pedestrian access to The Gateway\'s open-air shopping, dining, and lifestyle hub, including the Clark Planetarium, Discovery Gateway Children\'s Museum, Megaplex Theatres, and Wiseguys Comedy Club.
Salt Palace Convention Center: Located approximately 3 blocks to the east (an 8 to 10-minute walk), ideal for convention delegates, trade show exhibitors, and expo attendees.

Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity

Ingress and egress are engineered for efficient traffic management, with dedicated entry lanes accessible from 100 South and 400 West. Electronic overhead signage clearly guides motorists toward open levels and space clusters. Following major games and sold-out arena concerts at the Delta Center, dedicated traffic lanes and localized traffic control officers facilitate smooth dispersal toward major arterial corridors. The garage provides immediate highway connectivity, sitting just minutes from I-15 and I-80 on-ramps via 400 South or 600 South. For public transit users, the garage is adjacent to the Planetarium and Arena TRAX light rail stations (serving the Blue and Green lines within UTA\'s Free Fare Zone), and is only four blocks north of Salt Lake Central Station for FrontRunner commuter rail connections.

Visitor & Driver Tips

During Utah Jazz home games, NHL hockey matchups, and major headline arena concerts, the South Garage operates under flat-rate event pricing and fills quickly; arriving 45 to 60 minutes before tip-off or curtain call is strongly encouraged. Keep your parking ticket with you when leaving your vehicle, as several Gateway venues offer parking validation that significantly reduces standard rates. When departing post-event, using the lower exits toward 500 West can help bypass congestion on 400 West.
