About Plan GR

This app helps you explore alternative parking strategies to plan your visit to one of the large entertainment venues downtown.

Public Garages

These are city-managed structures with multiple levels of parking. These have affordable rates and many spots can be reserved in advance.

Public Lots

These are city-managed surface lots. They don't have as many spots as garages but may be easier for large vehicles to access.

Private Garages

These are privately-owned structures with multiple levels of parking. Costs and hours are not readily available.

Private Lots

These are privately-owned surface lots. They often provide self-service parking but rates are unpredictable.

The Downtown Area Shuttle

DASH is a free shuttle that operates in a clockwise loop. It reduces walking distances and provides access to more parking options.

Starting two hours before amphitheater showtimes, it follows an "Event Loop" detour for better service.
