Something doesn’t look quite right about this parking spot on the 1300 block of Pennsylvania Street on Capitol Hill in Denver, but it’s legit.
Wednesday morning as I walked through Capitol Hill to work, I spotted a gray CRV sort of vehicle laughably parked on the 1300 block of Pennsylvania Street. “That’s a late-night parking job,” I thought to myself.
The cockeyed car made me a little nervous so I peaked in the passenger side window as I walked past to make sure no one was slumped over the wheel. Fortunately, there was no one in the car. I chalked it up to nothing more as a bad parking job. Surely a ticket awaited the driver when they returned.
Thursday morning, though, I saw it again. This time an orange Subaru was hanging out in the street, elbowing for room just behind a white truck. I looked a little closer and realized the obviously awkward parking job was either legal or pretty close to it.
The spot is outside a parking garage next to the Colorado Public Employees Retirement Association and across the street from the Molly Brown House. The street is not entirely straight, making for an odd parking space right where the road juts out.
For the most part, Denver’s streets are straight and wide when compared to older cities like Boston, where a parking job like this might not even get a second glance. In a growing cowtown short on quirky cow paths, though, this spot struck me as particularly odd.
What do you think is the oddest legal parking spot in Denver?
Is this the oddest parking spot in Denver?
Could you park here?
