The 412-space, 5-level parking structure consolidates 5-acres of existing surface parking, thereby freeing up land for future urban redevelopment near Bushnell Park in Hartford, CT. Primary user groups include the State of Connecticut office workers and patrons of the Bushnell Performing Arts Center, located one block west. WGI provided production architecture and parking consultant services for the precast parking structure through the design-build delivery method.

The structure is constructed as an open parking structure with provisions for converting to an enclosed structure should future adjacent building construction necessitate. The structure is also designed to accommodate future two levels of vertical expansion.
