Facility Overview

The West Garage is a modern, multi-tier structured parking facility located in the thriving Hayden Avenue commercial and life sciences corridor in Lexington, Massachusetts (02421). Engineered to support prominent biotechnology facilities, regional headquarters, and healthcare technology enterprises, the garage provides a clean, well-lit, and sheltered parking environment. The structure features broad driving aisles, generous parking bays, clear directional wayfinding, and durable concrete decking designed to withstand harsh New England winters. The garage comfortably accommodates standard passenger sedans, compact crossovers, and full-size SUVs, while designated levels maintain a clear overhead clearance limit (typically 7 feet to 8 feet 2 inches on the ground level). Drivers of commercial high-roof vans, vehicles with roof-mounted cargo boxes, or lifted pickup trucks should verify clearance signage at the facility entrance before entering.

Visitor & Driver Tips

Visitors to campus tenants should confirm visitor parking registration protocols with their host organization prior to arrival, as access gates may require badge tap validation or digital parking reservations during regular business hours. When visiting during winter storms, covered lower and middle levels fill up earliest, so arriving early guarantees covered parking and avoids snow removal delays. Ensure headlights are on when navigating interior ramps and observe the posted 10 mph campus speed limit at all times.
