Mecklenburg County New Government District Parking Deck and Public Plaza
Charlotte, NC
The need for an additional parking structure in the Government District was defined as a result of the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Government District Master Plan and the design work for the new Mecklenburg County Courthouse. The Parking Deck was constructed in multiple stages with the designed Phase I structure containing approximately 454,000 Sq. Ft. and space for 993 vehicles. The Phase II expansion was designed to add 324,300 Sq. Ft. and space for an additional 840 vehicles. The deck design is aesthetically compatible with the new Courthouse, other local government facilities, and future developments in the Government District. In addition, the parking structure also provides retail space and a landscaped plaza for social interaction and pedestrian friendly access to the deck.
