The recently completed North Parking Garage and Retail for Rockhurst University is a mixed-use facility designed to serve the campus and adjacent community. The garage is strategically located on the edge of the campus and along Troost Avenue, a once prominent Kansas City business thoroughfare that is in the midst of great revitalization. Relocating surface parking in the middle of campus to the parking garage encourages a more walkable campus, while providing new street level business fronts along Troost Avenue and a connection to public transportation.
