The developer decided to make it 6 stories from 4 stories and also had some other things that held them up along the way so it actually did not open until 11/15/18.
It is now open for parking and is free at this time.
I checked it out in the middle of the day today (Saturday) in what was a very busy day for Riverdale Park Station and in the massive 6 story structure there were 7 cars on the ground floor in total. I think folks are accustomed to parking directly in front of the gym and on Woodberry for the gym and maybe don't know this parking is here or find it easier to park on the street vs a parking deck.
One thing I found odd (other than how many spots this deck offers) is there is only one elevator on the far side and it only goes up to level 4, I am guessing because the top two floors were decided upon at a later date.
The apartment that is supposed to wrap around this parking deck will have 230 units and they are slated to begin construction in January of 2019. It is supposed to take 2 full years to complete so it will be a long time before this parking deck is seeing any usage beyond a few cars.
Coolest thing about this deck is it is so massive that you can get some amazing views of Riverdale Park Station from the top of it...
See some shots I took today below:
Nice Pictures!
ReplyDeleteI've never heard anyone around here refer to a garage as a deck before.
ReplyDeleteWell it is a awesome news that the contsruction of the parking deck started a year ago and now it is about to complete and now the parking area is free for all now no one will going to face any difficulty for the parking and now the space is huge for the parking as it is made for the welfare of the people.
ReplyDeleteIt's good to know it's finally open. Congratulations, friend! I am really happy.
