架构师提供的文本描述。该项目包括为490辆汽车提供停车场、一个封闭的旅客等候区、五个新的和现有的校园巴士站的乘客庇护所、一个太阳能电池板阵列，将导致该大楼的净零用电，以及重新安置西23街和两个大学出租物业。该网站总共净增加281个停车位。此外，该项目还为校外居民和游客提供了一个停车的中心位置，并可进入大学交通系统/黑豹穿梭巴士和大都会交通局的路线，这些路线为雪松、急流和滑铁卢等城市提供服务。重新设计的西23街补充了雪松市的努力，其街道景观项目的西23街和邻近的学院山地区。

Text description provided by the architects. This project involved providing parking for 490+ vehicles, an enclosed passenger waiting area, passenger shelters at five new and existing bus stops on campus, a solar panel array that will result in a net-zero electricity use for the building, and the relocation of West 23rd Street and two University rental properties. In total it provides a net gain of approximately 281 parking spaces on the site. In addition, the project provides a central location for off-campus residents and visitors to park and have access to the University transit system/Panther Shuttle and the Metropolitan Transit Authority routes, which serve the cities of Cedar Rapids and Waterloo. The re-design of West 23rd Street complements the City of Cedar Falls’ efforts on its streetscape project for West 23rd Street and the adjacent College Hill area.

停车场甲板的设计可以容纳更多的两级停车场的未来扩展，超过在场地北侧的一级停车场。该设施的设计和聚集是同情北爱荷华大学校园建筑，特别是毗邻的砖混宿舍的南部。该结构被建在工地的斜坡上，尽量减少向住宅大厅的规模，并以砖块元素组织南立面：电梯竖井、中转亭和直线挡土墙。南，东，西的海拔被一个穿孔的面板在铜色的屏幕上被屏蔽，在一种材料选择来补充的背景下的汽车的屏蔽视图。

The design of the parking deck accommodates a future expansion of up to two additional levels of parking over the on-grade parking on the north side of the site. The design and massing of the facility are sympathetic to the University of Northern Iowa campus architecture, specifically the adjacent brick residence halls to the south. The structure is built into the slope of the site, minimizing the scale toward the residence halls, with brick elements organizing the south elevation: elevator shaft, transit pavilion and linear retaining wall. The south, east and west elevations are screened with a perforated panel in a copper color – screening views of the cars in a material chosen to complement the context.

大学与联邦交通管理局(FTA)和雪松市(Cedar Falls)就该项目开展了合作，该项目的部分资金来自多式联运基金。该项目约80%的资金来自FTA赠款，其中20%来自大学和雪松市。根据目前的停车费率，业务计划表明现金流量为正，并有足够的资金为今后的维修和更新提供经费。

The University has worked with the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) and the City of Cedar Falls on the project, which has been funded partially through Intermodal Transportation Funds. Approximately 80% of the funds for the project have come through the FTA grant, with 20% of the funds from the University and the City of Cedar Falls. Based on current parking rates, the business plan indicates a positive cash flow and adequate funds to provide for future maintenance and renewal.
