A groundbreaking for the North Fulton Parking Garage is scheduled for Monday. City of Fresno image<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
The parking structure will be located in between Tuolumne and Merced streets on Congo Alley.<\/p>\n
He added that there will be a 900-stall parking construction near Chukchansi Park that is set to break ground in the next three months.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He also noted that construction for the Carnegie Garage is expected to be completed within the next 12 months.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s not often I say a parking structure is beautiful, but I want to promise all of you this parking structure will be absolutely beautiful,\u201d Dyer said.<\/p>\n
The structure will be built by Bomel Construction in Irvine.<\/p>\n
Funded by a $30,000 grant from steel magnate and philanthropist Andrew Carnegie and built in 1904, the Fresno Carnegie Library was one of nearly 1,700 Carnegie funded across the country \u2014 and a dozen built locally.<\/p>\n
It was located near the Hotel Fresno, not far from the parking garage site.<\/p>\n
The project was funded through a combination of state and local resources, including part of $250 million that was secured from the state for Downtown Fresno infrastructure and housing initiatives. Dyer said the city is also establishing a $20 million revolving loan fund to assist with gap financing for shovel-ready projects.<\/p>\n
Council Vice President Miguel Arias, who represents the district that covers Downtown Fresno, said that residents have been longtime advocates for reinvestment focused on housing and infrastructure.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cFor decades, residents have believed in Downtown Fresno,\u201d Arias said. \u201cIf we don\u2019t invest in that infrastructure, that means that it comes at the expense of higher rents for people to live in Downtown Fresno.\u201d<\/p>\n
California Sen. Anna Caballero said the investment followed the city\u2019s decision to rezone, which created capacity for thousands of housing units.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThey\u2019re ready to build 75,000 housing units, but they need the infrastructure,\u201d Caballero said. \u201cThat became Fresno.\u201d<\/p>\n
Assemblymember Joaquin Arambula and several other speakers highlighted collaboration among local and state leaders, praising Gov. Gavin Newsom for his involvement.<\/p>\n
\u201cNone of us are able to do this alone,\u201d Arambula said. \u201cWe\u2019re here today to show the hard work that we\u2019ve done to put people back to work.\u201d<\/p>\n
Fresno Housing CEO Tyrone Roderick Williams, said the parking structure will support multiple housing developments already in progress.<\/p>\n
\u201cHousing is coming,\u201d Williams said. \u201cWe are aligned in our commitment to bring all levels of housing to downtown.\u201d<\/p>\n
