The design of Parking Structure 6 conveys the value of innovation and sustainability. As a design-build project, Morley Builders worked closely with architect Christof Jantzen and the project team, incorporating sustainable elements and ensuring the innovative nature and vision of the project remain intact while staying true to its function and design.

This design-build parking structure expansion has 750-spaces in eight above-ground and three subterranean levels with more than 7,000 square feet of retail space. The iconic façade consists of a series reflective stainless steel “sails,” angled to maximize natural lighting deep inside the structure. The façade not only provides a functional lighting aspect for the parking structure, it also creates a strong identity and celebrates its proximity to the ocean a block away. LED lighting with motion sensoring inside and rooftop solar panels reduce electricity usage. There are also 30 electric vehicle charging stations and storage for 90 bicycles.
