About this Location

Facility Overview

The Gateway North Garage, professionally operated by SP+ Parking, is a premier covered multi-level parking facility situated at 449 W 100 S in downtown Salt Lake City, Utah. Serving as the primary northern parking hub for The Gateway dining, retail, and entertainment complex, this facility offers secure, well-illuminated, and weather-protected parking right in the city\'s lively west-side district. The garage features a maximum vertical vehicle clearance of 7 feet 0 inches (7\'0\"), making it well-suited for standard passenger vehicles, sedans, crossovers, and standard SUVs. However, high-roof conversion vans, oversized commercial utility vehicles, lifted pickup trucks, or vehicles carrying roof cargo racks exceeding seven feet must seek surface lot parking alternatives nearby.

Prime Location & Nearby Attractions

Positioned immediately adjacent to some of Salt Lake City\'s most prominent entertainment venues and retail destinations, this parking structure offers unparalleled walkability:

Delta Center: Located just a quick 3 to 5-minute walk (less than two blocks away), making it one of the premier choices for Utah Jazz NBA games, Utah Hockey Club NHL matchups, and major touring concerts.
The Gateway & Clark Planetarium: Directly integrated with The Gateway shopping and lifestyle center, providing immediate indoor access to the Clark Planetarium, Megaplex Theatres at The Gateway, and the Discovery Gateway Children\'s Museum.
Salt Palace Convention Center: Situated roughly a 7 to 10-minute walk east, making it a convenient overflow parking option for large-scale conventions and trade shows.
Live Entertainment & Theaters: Within steps of local performance venues such as Metro Music Hall, The Box, and Wiseguys Comedy Club.
Dining & Nightlife: Direct pedestrian access to dozens of bars, microbreweries, and restaurants along 100 South, Rio Grande Street, and the downtown core.

Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity

Vehicular ingress and egress is accessed directly along West 100 South between 400 West and 500 West. Traffic movement is straightforward, though drivers should anticipate heavier congestion along 100 South and 400 West immediately before and after sellout events at the Delta Center. For regional commuters, the garage offers rapid access to Interstate 15 via the 600 South or 400 South on-ramps. Public transit connections are exceptional: the UTA TRAX light rail Planetarium Station (Blue Line) is situated right at The Gateway steps away, with the Arena Station (Blue and Green Lines) just two blocks northeast. In addition, the Salt Lake Central Station (FrontRunner commuter rail, Amtrak, and regional bus lines) is less than a 10-minute walk to the southwest.

Visitor & Driver Tips

During marquee concerts or sold-out Delta Center games, parking demand peaks rapidly; reserving your space ahead of time via SP+ (Parking.com) or SpotHero is strongly advised to guarantee entry and secure flat-rate event pricing. If visiting The Gateway merchants, cinema, or family attractions, check with participating retailers for parking validation stamps that can lower or waive your parking fee. When exiting following an arena event, follow posted garage egress signage directed toward 500 West for faster, less congested access to the freeway.
