Downtown parking has long been a challenge for the City of Coeur d’Alene. When Ignite CDA and the city partnered to develop a new parking garage, Miller Stauffer eagerly embraced the design challenge—creating architectural interest in a concrete structure through the thoughtful use of color, texture, lighting, and landscaping.
