Background

The hydraulic elevators in the parking structures 601 Front Street (Soquel/Front Garage) and 1050 Cedar Street (Locust Garage) are currently non-functional and require modernizations. The Soquel/Front Garage elevator was installed in 2000, and the Locust Garage was originally manufactured and installed in 1992. Both elevators are in very poor condition due to water intrusion and corrosion from age.
