**Butler University planning six-story parking garage with police HQ
Your headline doesn’t exaggerate the truth enough Chris.
Really bad headline describing what the project really is
I hope that Butler takes architectural design seriously with this project, unlike it has with the new addition to Clowes Hall.
We made some changes to the original headline to better describe the project.
Not much grace, character, or warmth. Dull, but unlikely to offend most people – cuz they’re used to it… Looks like the goal was lowest cost per parking space. Bad for the block, but maybe good for the campus core, to the extent it helps reclaim the asphalt surface lots in the core.
People say it’s just a garage. But garages can be better. Some even welcome you. This one doesn’t.
Forget how beautiful some pre-war garages were (and there still exist, you just don’t notice cuz they look like regular prewar buildings, not parking decks. Can’t do it today? – Wrong! Just look the following contemporary examples:
1. St. James-Beth Ahabah Parking Deck, Richmond, Virginia Commonwealth University
2. Cumberland Street Parking Garage, Charleston, South Carolina
3. Grace and Henry Street Parking Decks, Richmond, Virginia
4. The Shrine Parking Structure, Los Angeles, University of Southern California
It’s not too late. We get more imaginative for the sake of campus, and the neighborhood that has to look at it? Let’s make every building beautiful. The university will benefit, both immediately and in the long hall. Everyone will benefit.
How do you design a building and publicize it without giving its “exact location”? All we can do is guess from the rendering.
Looks from the rendering as if the site is the current surface parking lot at the NW corner of Haughey and 43rd just south of the Delta Tau Delta fraternity house.
