Gold 1 Parking Structure – Parksmart℠ Gold
The first project in the world designated a Parksmart℠ Gold project!
The North Shore area between PNC Park and Heinz Field is a fast-growing hub of retail, entertainment, and office uses creating demand for additional parking. This 1,000-car garage, designed for the Pittsburgh Stadium Authority, supports both daily and event parking.
The six-story precast concrete structure features a sculptural array of aluminum fins that shimmer in the sun paying homage to the glimmering Allegheny river.
