This project is a $23 Million Design/Build parking structure which, when completed, will contain (4) levels, accommodate 955 cars, (8) CNG buses, and separate offices for Garage Management, Long Island Bus, and Metropolitan Transportation Police.
The garage has been designed to compliment the proposed Mineola Downtown Revitalization Plan and the immediate surroundings. The garage facade is composed of brick and precast concrete elements, along with decorative precast concrete pilasters with tile inserts to match a nearby historic bridge. Each of the stair towers and the elevator will be clad in aluminum panels and clear glass. The same aluminum and glass aesthetic will be utilized for an enclosed pedestrian bridge which will be constructed to connect the garage, Mineola Station platforms, and ground level. The entire garage and overpass will be ADA compliant and will provide the area with improved handicapped access.
