Park It Here
Walker Parking Consultants drove away from the recent International Parking Institute conference in Denver with four project awards, one of them for a campus project.
The Underhill Field and Parking Garage at the University of California in Berkeley, California received the design Award of Excellence (first place) and an Honorable Mention Award (third place) for architectural achievement. The 1,000 space, 4-level facility is located two blocks south of the main Berkeley campus and includes a lighted recreational turf field and running track on the roof level. The facility was constructed using the design-build delivery method.
Also recognized were:
• The Garfield Street Community Center and Parking Garage in Hollywood, Florida, for design. It provides parking for 408 vehicles on 6 levels. The façade features architectural elements designed in harmony with local architectural themes. Pedestrian plazas are integrated throughout the site and feature paddle ball courts.
• The Claremont Village Expansion Parking Structure in Claremont, California, for architectural achievement. The design of this 477 space 4-level parking structure was driven by the desire to create a landmark entry to the City of Claremont, which historically was the center of the citrus packing industry. The parking structure also provides 6,000 square feet of ground-floor retail space and a landscaped public plaza with views to Mount Baldy.
• The Tampa General Hospital Parking Structure Expansion. Completed in 2007, the 1,389 space 7-level precast parking structure was a part of the hospital’s expansion program. Four vehicular bridges and one pedestrian bridge connect the hospital addition to the existing parking structures. The top level is designed for emergency helicopter landing.

INDEPENDENCE, Ohio (AP)—LeBron James(notes) shot left-handed layups and short jumpers at practiceAir Max Thursday, but the Cavaliers superstar is not expected to miss any of Cleveland’s playoff games because of his strained right elbowAir Max 90 and bone bruise.James was re-examined Wednesday night by team doctors, who took more X-rays and an MRI exam that revealed theAir Max 95 strain and a bruised bone near the elbow. James was not wearing a padded sleeve over the elbow at practice Thursday, but acknowledged it was more of a film session and walkthrough rather than a physical practice. He did sit out one portion of contact drills.“The best thing about it is there’s no structural damage,” James said. “The docs have given me clearance that I can’t hurt it worse and I can go out and playAir Max. Maybe it’s a strain in the muscle or the tendon.”Cleveland opens its best-of-seven playoff series against Boston on Saturday, and the Celtics are preparing for the same player who averaged 36.5 points against them in four regular-season games this year.“He’s fine,” Celtics coach Doc Rivers said. “If he goes three or fourAir Max 95 games and shoots left-handed only, then I’ll believe it’s hurting. We’ll be ready for the LeBron we’ve seen all through the playoffs.”James’ Air Max 90achy elbow has been the focus since Tuesday’s Game 5 victory over Chicago, when he shot a free throw left-handed in the final seconds. Air Max 95 He made the first foul shot with no sign of trouble to give Cleveland a four-point lead with 7.8 seconds remaining.
