希尔斯伯勒广场停车场可关闭

The last remaining C-permit parking spaces on the north side of the railroad tracks on NC State’s main campus will be eliminated in coming weeks to make way for a new upscale apartment complex in the old Hillsborough Square location.

该项目是北卡罗来纳州希尔斯伯勒街（Hillsborough Street）北部边界的1.6亿美元改头换面的一部分，其中包括罗利市第二阶段改善街道改进的第二阶段。

The five-story apartment building will be constructed by a private developer diagonally from the Memorial Tower on the Hillsborough Street roundabout, across from a new 135-room Aloft Hotel, which is slated to open later this summer.

NC State’s Board of Trustees Endowment Fund acquired Hillsborough Square in 1980 and the Belltower block, site of longtime residents Sadlacks and Schoolkids Records, in 2008. Those businesses were relocated.

The hotel site, between Enterprise Drive and Maiden Lane, is part of a 50-year lease with Bell View Partners, developer of the Aloft. The parking lot site has been sold for about $800,000 to Bell Curve Partners for development. And the city of Raleigh purchased some of the land for about $900,000 to make way for multiple roundabouts in that area as part of the first phase of street improvements.

All told, the endowment fund will realize about $4 million from the sale and lease of those parcels, according to Ralph Recchie, the university’s director of real estate.

For those who work on campus, however, approximately 60 C spaces will be eliminated, 33 on the actual site of the apartments and 15 on the Oberlin Street spoke between the two roundabouts between the hotel and the Hillsborough Square location. There are no current plans to create new C spaces or to reallocate B or UD spaces on the north side of the tracks between Pullen Road and Dan Allen Drive, according to NCSU Transportation.

“The loss of those parking spaces is unfortunate on our most densely developed part of campus,” Recchie said. “It does create a tough capacity issue.”

In addition to the loss of 48 spaces on the north side of the railroad tracks, about 130 C spaces in the Jeter Bays adjacent to Reynolds Coliseum are out of commission for the duration of the ongoing $35 million renovation at the historic arena that began in March. However, thanks to the reconfiguration of parking spaces along Cates Avenue, Jensen Drive and Dunn Drive and the reconfiguration of 147 pay spaces in the Reynolds Coliseum deck, there was no net loss of C spaces in the coliseum area.

NCSU运输提出了一些建议，以减轻教师和教职员工C空间损失造成的不便。

C许可证持有人的选项：

1. Retain a C permit. This permit allows the flexibility to park in all other C parking areas on campus and will be the best choice for those who need to drive to other parts of campus. However, with the Reynolds Coliseum renovation project underway, C parking in Jeter Bays may be limited at times until this project is completed in 2016.
2. 将C许可证转换为CD体育馆甲板许可证。转换为CD许可证可确保特定位置的可用停车位。C许可证和CD许可的成本相同 - 每年342美元。
3. Request to be placed on the “B” waitlist. Please contact David Gregory atdwgrego2@ncsu.edu被放置在列表上或检查状态。“ B”许可证的年度费用为447美元。
4. Departmental UD permit. If you are a C permit holder who uses a personal vehicle to conduct business on main campus, a departmental UD permit offers B permit parking and gate access for an annual cost of $447.
5. For those who only need short-term parking, eight pay-by-space machines are located between the Belltower and Holladay Hall; $2 for first hour and $1 for each consecutive half hour.
