Parking Structure (Lincoln St. elevation)

Name: State Capitol Parking Structure

Number of Spaces: Unknown

Description: A 6-level new parking structure for State of Colorado employees next to the State Capitol.

Cost: Unknown

Developer: State of Colorado, Department of Personnel and Administration, Capitol Parking Authority

Architect: Shears - Adkins Architects, LLC

Contractor: PCL Construction

Current status: Construction started in early 2005.  Completion anticipated for Fall 2005.

 

This block currently holds several  state government buildings separated by a hodge podge of surface parking lots.  A new parking garage located right at the corner of 14th and Lincoln is perhaps not the best type of building for framing the State Capitol from Civic Center Park, but it's better than a surface lot.  The structure's design at least has horizontal floor plates and makes an attempt at some classical architectural elements, so it could be worse.  The project also includes a pocket park at the southern end of the development.
