Facility Overview

The Target Parking Lot at 1265 Sergeant Jon Stiles Drive serves the primary Target retail and grocery store in western Highlands Ranch, Colorado. Positioned just south of the C-470 corridor off Lucent Boulevard, this expansive open-air surface parking facility provides hundreds of well-demarcated spaces designed for smooth traffic circulation.

Wide drive aisles and designated pedestrian pathways ensure safe maneuvering throughout the property.
