Parking on Gay Street

Parking is not in short supply around the Gay St District. Find many options to park and go within a short walk of shops, galleries, restaurants, and more.

To help offset the loss of on-street parking and support continued access to Gay Street businesses, the City is helping provide convenient, affordable parking for customers during construction at the Fourth and Elm garage (78 N. Fourth Street), just a five-minute walk to the Gay and High intersection.
