The 6-story parking structure under construction on Jefferson Street between First and Second Streets is playing catch-up after the Ice Storm 2009 delayed work last week. Crews were on hand today pouring the third floor of the concrete structure, which is almost halfway done.
The finished $6.5 million building will contain 1,000 square feet of retail space under 433 parking spots and will give a height-boost to the area immediately east of Second Street predominated by low, one-story buildings. A portion of the garage will be clad in brick while two flanking stair towers will be encased in glass.
