Two new parking decks in the plans. Probably never be built.

The Engineers tell me that the DA standard is 60 spaces for every 100 occupants in the building, waiverable to 80:100. No consideration for guests.

How many people do you know that carpool to Bragg?

The new 3rd Group HQs has IIRC, six spaces because they forgot, and then the wouldn't fit into the available space. And the old Group HQs is going to be given to the GSB, and it already had inadequate parking.

At least the parking is in the rear of the building, and 18 months after completed a savvy Master Planner can program an expansion to the existing lot.

Sadly...that's exactly what I was thinking as I had to send out an email today reminding people that although DOTD is the coolest place to work...we still have to abide by Army grooming standards...and yes, we do walk right under the flagpole everyday going to work.

My first mass warning about haircuts...a part of me died today.

At least someone FINALLY got smart and decided to build a multistory parking deck. That's EXACTLY what is needed as USASOC.
