BEYOND PARKING: ACTIVATING THE CITY-COUNTY DECK

EXISTING: The city-county parking deck features expansive views of downtown Carrollton. This parking deck primarily serves employees at the local government and is largely vacant after 5:00 p.m.

Proposed

The large top floor of the downtown parking deck could be the perfect venue for a variety of exciting downtown events. Options pictured include a small fair with kiddie rides, a signature local art market, and a cruise-in classic car show.

Proposed

The large open bays at the city-county deck could create perfect areas for a variety of new downtown businesses and necessary public facilities. Relocating the existing restroom facility at the Amp to the parking deck could make for a more open flexible public space. One storefront could also incorporate a downtown hospitality suite, a need identified by city staff. Redesigning the deck to incorporate ground floor retail and other uses could increase activity and vitality in this area and grow opportunities for downtown small businesses.
