Concrete Strategies performed the structural concrete for this 220,000-square-foot underground parking garage. The three-level garage was constructed with 2-foot to 4-foot thick, 35-foot-tall perimeter walls, structural concrete columns and post-tension slabs at a cost of $39,000 per space. The construction of this underground parking garage allowed Washington University’s landlocked campus to provide 523 additional parking spaces while maintaining precious green space and athletic fields on the heart of campus.
Design-build of a three-story, 520-car, cast-in-place underground garage at Washington University Danforth University Center. The university has limited parking and therefore the two lower levels of the garage were open to the public while construction was going on above. Since the Underground Garage and its lid were essentially rectangle and the University Center incorporated an array of wings, landscape and outdoor amenities, the two facilities took great measure to ensure an appealing and functional interface.
