801 K Street Parking Garage

let me out~~~~!!!!!!!!!

this parking garage has a gate that comes down at the enterance/exit after hours. great security, fabulous idea. BUT...if you want to leave, make sure you don't accidentally swipe your parking pass twice across the sensor. apparently, the sensor machine thingy thinks you're trying to cheat them by letting 2 cars out, or something, and it won't open the gate for you.

AND make sure that if you are unable to follow the car in front of you out, and the gate starts lowering, let the freakin gate shut all the way instead of swiping your card and hoping that that the gate will change directions and open for you. it doesn't. and the sensor machine thingy will think that you're trying to let 2 cars out and you're stuck until you can follow another car out.

Parking was convenient and easy to use. Facility appeared to be safe and clean. Not too much traffic around the area.

Back in the 90's- I had moves. The top landing of this parking garage was one of my favorite places to take a guy if I wanted to prompt a little make out session. Great, now I sound like a slut. Yeah, well, those were the good ol' days.

Great view of the capitol building and surrounding skyline. Security might hassle you if you are there too long. But if you and your romantic interest are putting on a good show they just might let you stay.

Other than a funny smell, which I have come to accept for all of Sacramento, the lot was fine.
