Facility Overview
Time Park at 1340 Tremont Place provides prime downtown Denver parking situated right at the nexus of the city\'s central business district, civic center, and convention corridor. Operating as an easily accessible open-air surface parking lot, this facility offers an effortless park-and-walk experience without the hassle of navigating tight, multi-story spiral ramps. Because it is an outdoor lot with no overhead ceiling barriers, Time Park features unlimited vertical vehicle clearance, making it exceptionally well-suited for oversized pickup trucks, full-size SUVs with roof cargo boxes, ski racks, commercial work vans, and high-clearance passenger vehicles that cannot safely enter standard subterranean or multi-level parking structures.

Positioned along Tremont Place between 13th and 14th Streets, this location places drivers within steps of Denver\'s most sought-after cultural, administrative, and entertainment venues:

Downtown Denver parking demand spikes heavily during major convention dates, DPAC evening performances, and Civic Center festivals. Drivers are strongly advised to arrive early to secure space during peak convention morning hours.

Always check posted on-site rate boards for potential special event pricing adjustments during citywide gatherings.
