TKDA provided architectural and mass transit design for parking ramp expansion
TKDA and Walker Parking Consultants provided mass transit engineering and architectural design as well as construction administration services for a two-level vertical expansion of a parking ramp for Minnesota Valley Transit Authority (MVTA). This project provided an additional 330 parking stalls and five-story elevator components. MVTA wanted an updated architectural look that would take advantage of the highly visible location. Our team successfully built a perforated metal screen accented by a swooping metal element containing color-changing LED lighting. This mass transit design allows MVTA to create a dynamic facade that expresses its leadership in park and ride services.
