Facility Overview
Conveniently situated in the bustling heart of the Downtown Denver Central Business District (CBD), the SP+ Parking facility at 1737 Curtis Street provides an exceptional urban parking solution for daily commuters, event attendees, and out-of-town visitors. Nestled along Curtis Street between 17th and 18th Streets, this strategically positioned facility provides straightforward entry and streamlined maneuvering. The location comfortably accommodates standard passenger cars, sedans, compact crossovers, and standard mid-size to full-size SUVs. Drivers of larger trucks and family haulers will appreciate the well-proportioned driving aisles and clearly designated spaces. Because vertical headroom clearance is optimized for standard passenger vehicles, motorists operating modified high-profile commercial vans, roof-box extensions, or lifted heavy-duty trucks should verify clearance signage at the driveway before entering.

Visitor & Driver Tips
Downtown Denver street traffic can become dense during weekday morning rush hours (7:30 AM – 9:00 AM) and ahead of evening events at DPAC or Coors Field. Reserving your parking space in advance through pre-booking apps is highly recommended to lock in competitive rates and avoid drive-up event surge pricing. When returning to your vehicle late at night, take advantage of the illuminated 16th Street Mall corridor for comfortable pedestrian access.
