Riverfront Parking Deck - Wilmington, Delaware TimHaahs was the parking garage designer and structural engineer for a 425 space garage at the Amtrak Station in Wilmington. The architect, Tevebaugh Associates, developed a handsome, brick clad facility that blends in with the station and surrounding buildings. Slate roofs and decorative railings and grills complement the nearby Victorian architectural style.  The garage serves Amtrak riders, visitors, and employees of a new corporate headquarters building. During the weekends, visitors will use the garage for special events at Riverfront Plaza directly across the street from the garage. The structural system is cast-in-place, post-tensioned concrete founded on timber piles. Revenue control will feature a pay-on-foot system.
