The CSUN G6 Parking Structure provides additional parking on the eastern side of the campus for students, staff and visitors. The main vehicle entrance has been tied directly into the public intersection at Zelzah Ave. and Plummer St. and incorporates updated street signalization. The project features 1,555-spaces on five levels with an additional adjacent 53-space surface lot to the south. A pedestrian paseo has been integrated into the west side of the site providing direct connections between the structure and the campus. The paseo incorporates decorative paving, landscaping elements, bicycle racks, and retractable bollards to allow for campus shuttles and fire department access. The primary elevator/stair core adjacent to the paseo includes a brick-clad “fin” wall, two glass-backed elevators and a large roof canopy covering the stair and elevator lobby. Architectural façade enhancements include a 20-foot-high fabric banner system on the west as well as brick accents, composite metal panels, cantilevered metal trellises and perforated aluminum panels in various locations around the perimeter. Sustainable features include LED lighting with dual-dimming and occupancy sensors, integrated storm water management, electric-vehicle charging stations, bike parking and a rooftop photovoltaic array currently in design. A parking stall count system displays available spaces per level to facilitate users locating available parking stalls.
