Commission hears 11th Street garage and downtown construction updates; tower crane removal underway
Summary
The redevelopment commission received construction updates on the 11th Street garage and adjacent residential tower, including that the tower crane is being removed this week and traffic is being directed via the Niki parking lot while finishes continue.
At the April 13 meeting the commission received an update on the 11th Street garage and the associated residential tower. No approvals were required. Attendees were told York (the developer) will provide further updates at the next meeting. Members were informed the tower crane is being removed this week; organizers had requested a three-day street-closure permit but expected the work could take up to five days given weather. Traffic to the garage on Pine Street is being routed off Spring Street through the Niki parking lot while the removal and equipment access proceed.
The update emphasized safety concerns with crane removal during high winds and described how traffic and lowboy (heavy equipment) movements were being coordinated. The transcript does not record new permits being approved at the meeting; commissioners said they will monitor progress.
