RNL Design, in association with Shears+Leese Architects, received an Award of Excellence from the International Parking Institute (IPI) for the 15th & Pearl Parking Structure in Boulder. The $11.2 million, 260,000 s.f. mixed-use facility won the highest award for a parking structure under 800 spaces at the 2001 International Parking Institute Annual Conference.
The 15th & Pearl Parking Structure includes 7,500 s.f. of retail on the first floor and 7,500 s.f. of city office space on the second floor with a post-tensioned concrete garage that holds approximately 700 cars on eight levels, two below grade.
Facing the challenge of building a structure in close proximity to the historic storefronts along Pearl Street, the design team created a garage facility that was integrated with the retail and office spaces on the three facades facing public streets.
