The Parking Spot — Coming Soon to Salt Lake City Airport By Chuck Harvey CEG CORRESPONDENT
The Parking Spot will provide a value-added parking option for Salt Lake City International Airport fliers. The privatelyowned, near-airport parking business is designed for the comfort of air travelers who want a more efficient way to park their cars and get to their flights in an efficient and timely manner. Groundbreaking for the Parking Spot, located at 123 South, 2400 West, was held in April of this year. The project is expected to be completed by the end of 2018. The Salt Lake City Parking Spot is about 2 mi. from Salt Lake City International Airport, just off Interstate 80 and Interstate 215 in the Salt Lake Valley. Travelers can take either freeway to access the Parking Spot location. The Parking Spot Salt Lake City is part of a fast-growing enterprise. Since being founded in 1998, the Parking Spot has grown to be the leading near-airport parking company in the United States. In addition to having 39 airport parking lots at 22 airports, the Parking Spot focuses on hospitality to provide travelers with easy, comfortable and affordable airport parking experiences. Covering 33 acres, The Salt Lake City Parking Spot will offer

covered parking as well as shuttle service. It will provide 720 canopy-covered and 1,337 uncovered parking spaces, which will be lined and identified with the corresponding space number, which the company refers to as a spot number. “To help guests identify where their vehicle is located, we distribute ticket stubs with the row and spot number on them, or they can
download our mobile app, which includes a car locator feature,” said John Lyon, senior vice president of development and acquisitions for The Parking Spot. The project’s development team includes Big D Construction of Salt Lake City as general contractor and Kimley Horn Associates of Raleigh, N.C., as project engineer and architect. Big D Construction is well-
versed in a variety of construction specialties. The company constructs buildings for food storage, healthcare, schools, light commercial use, offices, manufacturing, stores, federal and state facilities, warehouses, hospitality use, multifamily projects and industrial, mining and historic renovation use. It also is experienced at constructing public spaces. The Parking Spot project is not
the Big-D’s first project connected to the Salt Lake City International Airport. Big D Construction also is part of a joint venture making major improvements at the airport. The airport serves an estimated 20 million passengers annually. That figure will continue to increase as more people move to Utah and as more businesses set up shop in the state. see AIRPORT page 6
