The City of Alameda is making improvements at the downtown Civic Center Parking Garage on Oak Street to make it a safer, cleaner, and more user-friendly experience for everyone. We're taking action to address concerns about vandalism, elevator service issues, loitering, and unsheltered encampments.
Recently Completed Improvements:
- Repaired elevator
- Upgraded stairwell lights to LED for better visibility
- Installed temporary fencing on the 1st and 5th floors to deter unwanted activity
Improvements planned for later this year:
- We plan to close the garage overnight to reduce vandalism. Please take this short survey (by July 24) to tell us what closing times work best for you
- The top floor will be reserved for City use only to prevent loitering
- Fencing on floors 2-5 will be installed for added security
- The interior of the garage and stairwells will be repainted to increase luminosity and create a brighter, more welcoming environment
- Parking kiosks on the 1st floor will be upgraded for mobile payments
- An upgrading parking guidance system will be installed to improve occupancy management
Thank you for your patience! We are committed to making the Civic Center Garage a safe and convenient place to park. If you have questions or need additional information, contact Ricardo De La Torre, Public Works Parking Manager, at 510-747-7923 or rdelatorre@alamedaca.gov.
