Westfield Century City Parking Structure Complete in Time for Holiday Shopping
Largo Concrete recently completed the Design-Build Parking Structure at Westfield Century City on Nov. 21 just in time for holiday shopping. The structure will provide the retail facility an additional 561-stalls across five-levels of above grade and one-and-a-half levels of below grade parking. This two-bay wide, long-span parking structure utilizes a shear wall structural system and is designed with jump-ramps at the top and bottom to improve circulation.
Chameleon colored metal panels cover a majority of the facade reflecting different shades of green, blue and purple and creating a unique look depending on the time of day. CMU block and spandrels with hex pattern reveals make up the rest of the exterior facade. The structure is equipped with photovoltaic panels on the roof deck generating electricity while at the same time providing shade for those parked on the top level. Other environmentally conscious features include 28-stalls designated for Low Emission, Fuel Efficient (LEFE) vehicles and 18-stalls set aside for car/van pool parking located on the grade level with quick access to the mall entrance. A car counting system displays available parking by level and indicator lights direct patrons to available stalls reducing the time spent looking for parking.
