A new parking garage next to the PACE Center will be coming to downtown Parker soon. The four-level garage has been thoughtfully designed to complement the PACE Center building colors, materials and artistic nature. Once constructed, the Cultural Department will commission an artist to create a mural on the western façade that will highlight the creative nature of the PACE Center. This parking structure will provide nearly 300 free parking spaces for all of downtown. Nine spaces will be accessible, two van accessible and ten bicycle spaces along with ten EV charging stations. With a continued focus on a downtown pedestrian environment, walkers, hikers and bikers can use the connecting Sulfur Gulch trail. This new garage is part of a larger plan to revitalize downtown Parker and further Mainstreet’s role as the economic, cultural and social center of the Parker community. This project will continue to shape our vital downtown and enrich the community for residents and visitors alike.
