Entry Pavilion Parking Structure |
| |
Monterey, California |
| |
|
| |
The addition of the South Pavilion wing at the Community Hospital of the Monterey Peninsula (CHOMP) resulted in increased parking need. Studies of different locations and designs determined that a three-level parking structure underneath the existing pedestrian entry plaza would best suit this demand for the campus. |
| |
|
| |
CHOMP hired the design/build team of Watry Design, Inc. and John F. Otto, Inc. to construct the underground parking facility. Watry Design addressed the issues of light, air, security, and parking convenience that face underground structures while working closely with HOK to maintain the architectural features of the existing hospital. |
| |
|
| |
The prominent architectural features include a soffited ceiling to conceal utilities and the architectural detail that matches the pattern on the existing hospital. Security offices are located at all levels, with a PBX room located on lowest level. |
