Photo: [Pexels](https://www.pexels.com) ## Parking Near the Freer Gallery of Art on Independence Avenue The Freer Gallery of Art is at 1050 Independence Avenue Southwest, next to the Sackler Gallery in Washington’s National Mall area. The Smithsonian’s directions identify the museums as being by the Smithsonian Metro stop and direct drivers to the United States Park Police for recommended parking (asia.si.edu). The site sits 0.7 mi from central Washington, so driving directly to the museum does not guarantee a space close to the entrance. The museum complex is next door to 12th Street Southwest, according to Parking.com (parking.com). ## Nearby Garages Around 901 D Street Southwest and L’Enfant Plaza Two covered Parksy spaces are listed at 901 D Street Southwest, each 0.3 mi from the museum and priced at $18.95 a day. Also 0.3 mi away, a secure space is listed at 1300 D Street Southwest in The Portals III Garage for $23 a day. A valet space at 480 L’Enfant Plaza Southwest is 0.3 mi away and costs $35 a day. These named options place parking within a short walk of the National Mall museums.
