An important focus of the plan is addressing the visual impact of cars and surface parking lots. Currently, all vehicles on the site are parked in surface lots. North Coast’s plan includes subterranean garages in most new residential structures and concealed garages in the duplex units.
The central parking lot will remain and serve the academic campus and users of the playing field and fitness center.
North Coast’s parking plan is part of a larger Complete Streets plan designed to encourage pedestrian and bicyclist activity while reducing the presence and reliance on vehicles.
