Project Description
With the recent additions to airline gates and routes at Logan International Airport, Massport required improved parking for travelers in East Boston. Arrowstreet is currently leading a multidisciplinary team in preparing architectural, engineering and design studies for the construction of additional parking at the West Garage. The team is evaluating the seamless integration of new structures into existing garages, walkways, and adjacent terminals. Arrowstreet worked with the Authority early in the project to evaluate multiple options and develop a configuration that optimized parking and passenger experience. Special attention is being paid to garage exteriors through the use of kinetic facades to provide distinctive screening and an attractive backdrop to the 911 Memorial and the Hilton Hotel. The West Garage is being completed on an aggressive timeframe and using Lean Construction principles.
