Allentown Government Area Parking Structure - Allentown, Pennsylvania

For the Allentown Parking Authority, TimHaahs designed this 600-space, eight tier facility, with the provision to convert the ground and second levels to office or retail space. TimHaahs designed the nearby Allentown Government Area Parking Structure and the Allentown Transportation Center concurrently.



The new parking structure provides parking for city and county employees and visitor parking in center city Allentown. A pedestrian bridge provides direct access to the Upper City Hall Plaza. The structure’s façade design was driven by the city’s effort to spur development in downtown Allentown.

The TimHaahs team used a combination of architectural precast and brick, perforated metal screening and accent lighting to create an architectural centerpiece. Linear spot lighting will be used to accent the perforated metal screen façade.



This groundbreaking project is visible from the Hamilton Street Bridge, the East gateway to the City of Allentown.
