Facility Overview
The Target Parking Lot at 1110 S 300 W provides a spacious, open-air surface parking facility situated between Salt Lake City\'s vibrant Granary District, Central Ninth, and the historic Ballpark neighborhood. Designed primarily to accommodate retail guests and community visitors, the lot boasts a wide layout with clear two-way driving aisles, angled and standard perpendicular parking stalls, and designated curbside pickup bays. Because it is a ground-level, uncovered surface lot, there are no overhead clearance height restrictions, making it an exceptionally accessible parking solution for standard cars, large crossover SUVs, heavy-duty pickup trucks, and high-roof conversion vans that typically struggle to enter low-clearance downtown parking decks.

Visitor & Driver Tips
The facility is intended for active retail patrons; customers should observe posted signage regarding maximum parking durations and retail-only use. During evening peak hours or major neighborhood events, entrances along 300 West can experience heavier traffic flows, so utilizing signalized intersections when turning onto 300 West is strongly recommended for safety and ease of travel.
