Denver Fire's collapse team rolled out Monday night after a localized partial collapse at a parking garage at 3600 S. Yosemite Street in southeast Denver. Two vehicles were crushed in the incident, and the department said there were no injuries as crews moved in to search and secure the scene.
On-scene search and what officials said
According to a post from the Denver Fire Department, collapse specialists were on scene and the department reported that "more in-depth searches using drones and cameras are happening now" to confirm there were no victims. The post noted the failure appeared to be limited to a portion of the garage and that two cars had been crushed in the collapse.
The site and the structure
A commercial listing on LoopNet for 3600 S. Yosemite Street identifies the property as a multi‑tenant office building with covered parking, suggesting the damaged structure serves building tenants and visitors. That listing indicates the garage holds on-site parking used by tenants, which could explain the presence of parked vehicles when the localized collapse occurred.
Next steps and oversight
Crews will continue imaging and searches while structural engineers and the property owner assess stability and determine whether shoring or repairs are required. The City and County of Denver building inspections policy notes that inspectors perform emergency inspections of damaged structures and coordinate with fire officials on safety decisions, a step likely to follow this incident.
How to follow updates
Denver Fire posted the initial notice on its official X account and said photos and further details would follow as the scene is documented. We will update this story when agencies release additional information and the city posts formal findings.
