About this Location

Facility Overview

The Alaire Garage at 1150 Higgins Place provides a secure, modern, multi-level covered parking facility located directly adjacent to the vibrant Twinbrook community in Rockville, Maryland. Constructed as part of the transit-oriented development at Twinbrook Station, the garage serves residents, retail patrons, daily commuters, and visitors alike. Designed with wide driving lanes, well-marked bays, and clear interior wayfinding, the structure comfortably accommodates standard passenger cars, minivans, crossovers, and full-size SUVs.
