This
11-story, concrete parking garage is located on US1, on a site restricted
by the Snapper Creek Canal to the South and its 2-fl proximity to Metrorail's
Dadeland North Station elevated guide-way. With total capacity for 2000
vehicles, it was designed with the promenade level adjacent to the canal
and provisions for future use as commercial/ retail space with allowance
for a future child-care facility on the ground level. Design features
include speed helix for direct exit from the 5 upper levels and sophisticated
parking control equipment. There is camera surveillance throughout the
building and patron safety is monitored from a strategically located
security control office. All parking space counts, audits and Diagnostics
are done by equipment in a Control Center. It also functions as a Bus
Station on Ground Floor with 10 Bus Stops. The Design Phase was conducted
by MDTA and the Construction was handled by FDOT.
