Why is it masculine?

Garaje is masculine because it derives from the French word "garage," which itself comes from the French verb "garer" (to park/shelter), and French masculine nouns ending in "-age" remained masculine when borrowed into Spanish. The "-aje" ending in Spanish typically carries masculine gender due to this Romance language inheritance pattern.
