Mint Street parking deck near stadium and ballpark will get a $6 million makeover
The Mint Street parking deck between Bank of America Stadium and Truist Field is getting a $6 million makeover.
Over the next nine months, Preferred Parking will upgrade the garage’s control gates, ticket dispensers and signage. Parking spaces will be repainted and real-time space counting screens will be installed.
The garage will remain open for the duration of the updates, Preferred Parking said.
The goal is to make the garage the more efficient, technologically-advanced and user-friendly, said owner of Preferred Parking, Roger Stacks in a news release.
The six-story garage at 420 S. Mint St. has over 2,000 parking spaces. Duke Energy used to own the garage but sold it in April to an Atlanta-based investment group, which has Preferred Parking managing the property.
Preferred Parking has 250 employees and operates over 200 parking properties across the Southeast, according to its website. The company manages multiple parking facilities in Charlotte in uptown, South End and NoDa.
