Information WB Moore Company
The new Mecklenburg County Parking Deck is located at the corner of 4th Street and McDowell Street in Charlotte, NC.  This seven-story garage was constructed to provide additional parking space for the new Mecklenburg County Courthouse building across the street.  This parking structure is being constructed in multiple stages with the Phase I structure containing approximately 428,000 square feet and space for 993 vehicles.  The deck is aesthetically designed and compatible with the new Courthouse, other local government facilities, and future developments in the Government District.  A major component of the project is the development of an urban plaza and streetscape improvements to link the new structure with the new adjacent Courthouse.

Electrically the facility includes: an 80 KVA uninterruptible power supply for emergency lighting; a 350 KW generator and three transfer switches for emergency power to elevators, mechanical equipment and lighting; a fire alarm system; a camera surveillance system; and a code blue emergency call system. The garage lighting employs a total quantity of (1,075) lighting fixtures and the lighting through out the structure is controlled by (2) sophisticated lighting control panels.  Provisions are included for four future retail spaces each provided with a 200 ampere service.
