Park Place

Missoula Parking Commission

Park Place is a five-level, 334-space parking structure with 3,000 square feet of retail area on the corner of Front and Pattee Streets. Designed to create a new “brand” for the Missoula Parking Commission that is “fresh, urban and progressive,” the building has pedestrian-friendly elements that reinforce the urban fabric of downtown Missoula.

The skin covering the parking portion of the building is made of multi-colored, perforated aluminum panels which evoke the mountains and sky of Missoula. 30” wide view slots, at eye level, afford the parking patron views these surrounding mountains.
