500 space 5-level cast-in-place concrete parking structure

The parking structure is part of a mixed-use facility servicing retail, residential, employee, and cinema. The structure is above residential and cinema areas that are located within the footprint of the structure. The floor plates are all generally flat so there is good visibility. Functionally, there is angled parking with one-way traffic flow. The circular helix ramping system is two-way traffic. The pedestrian bridge connects to another parking structure across the street. Durability features include epoxy coated reinforcement, air entrained concrete, low water/cement ratio, and traffic bearing waterproofing membrane over occupied spaces. One reversible exit lane includes a pay-in-lane machine in addition to a cashier booth.
